East Cape War - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (1547 words) |
 | The East Cape War, sometimes also called the East Coast War, refers to a series of conflicts that were fought in the North Island of New Zealand from about May 1865 to June 1868. |
| There were at least three separate unrelated campaigns fought in the area during a period of relative peace between the main clashes of the Maori Wars, between the end of the Invasion of the Waikato, and beginning of Te Kooti's War. |
| The arrival of the Hau Hau in the East Cape effectively destabilized the whole region causing great alarm among the settlers and also seriously disrupting Maori society because of its disregard for traditional tribal structures. |
