Why would being maori make a difference?
Anyway, the only French military action we're aware of is the sinking of a civilian ship (The Rainbow Warrior) back in the 1980s and it was in port at the time.
Warrior culture. Do look up "Mali" when you have time.
You've seen 'Once Were Warriors' too many times.
They're no more warriors than the British that settled this country. Today you're more likely to see a bunch of fat guys in grass skirts over black shorts with marker pen on their faces poking their tongues out.
I know about Mali but I still can't help thinking 'cheese eating surrender monkeys', it's just one of those things we inherited from the British.
