In New Zealand, the indigenous language is Te Reo Maori spoken by the indigenous people of Aotearoa but during the 1900s the langue was starting to dying out.
In schools, Te Reo Maori was banned as a language taught in classes because New Zealanders had gotten a mistaken idea by thinking that European history was more important then Maori history. This was because of the most the indigenous people moved to the countrysides and cities which made people forget their original roots. Now attitudes have changed and now people are fond of the culture and history and now Te Reo Maori is proudly taught in New Zealand schools.
This summary is about the history of Te Reo Maori and how it was about to die out because of the Maori people remembering how they are and where they come from. I learned so much about culture and history.
