In the 20th century what was New Zealand?

Answer:
It was the 8th state of Australia. It was decided late in the 20th Century that Australia only wanted 7 states and so it was cut adrift. It broke into two pieces as a result of the separation and all of the New Zealanders (AKA Kiwis) have been trying to come back over ever since.
