Chile and New Zealand

In both countries we have some similarities and differences, in our culture, religion, habits, etc.
First of all the weather of New Zealand it is like the weather of the south of our country, so the agriculture it's like ours because the weather influences, they have like the same type of potato
and other products. They are one of the countries most dedicated to the livestock, they have sheep and cow, the same as Chile,

In our country the most important aborigine culture is the mapuche and in NZ is the Maori, but the
most important difference is how the society and the government accept this aborigines cultures. In New Zealand the Maori are respected by the society and they have influence in the politic, they have a political party and the people who is descendant from Maori are very proud of that. But in Chile our aborigine are discriminated by a part of the society and the government doesn't care too much about the situation of the mapuche and their problems.

A difference that is the mos important it is that the New Zealand was founded by the British empire and Chile was founded by the Spanish empire. this made a lot of differences in the habits, like the hobbies, sports, music, food habits, etc.

For example the sport more play in NZ is the rugby and in Chile is the soccer. For the New Zealanders the most important time to eat is the dinner, and in our culture is in the lunch time.
