The New Zealand War of Independence was a major political upheavel in Haydanian controlled New Zealand which eventually turned into a conflict between the citizens and the Imperial Haydanian Crown. The New Zealanders were eventually joined by the Kingdom of France, of which Haydn humiliated in the Seven Years' War. Denmark-Norway eventually joined, being France's ally. But they never deployed troops at New Zealand; only in Europe as Haydn had interests there.

| - The New Zealand War of Independence was a major political upheavel in Haydanian controlled New Zealand which eventually turned into a conflict between the citizens and the Imperial Haydanian Crown. The New Zealanders were eventually joined by the Kingdom of France, of which Haydn humiliated in the Seven Years' War. Denmark-Norway eventually joined, being France's ally. But they never deployed troops at New Zealand; only in Europe as Haydn had interests there. The war was the result of the political New Zealand Upheaval. The Imperial Haydanian Crown insisted it had the right to tax colonists to finance the colonies' military defense, which had become increasingly expensive due to the several wars and upkeep. The colonies argued that they already spent much through local government to maintain their place in the Haydn's empire, with John Rows appearing before the Imperial Haydanian Crown testifying "New Zealand raised, clothed, and paid, during the last war, near twenty-five thousand men, and spent many millions." The colonists claimed that, as they were Haydanian subjects, taxation without representation, was illegal. The New Zealanders formed a unifying New Zealand Commonwealth and a shadow government on each island, though at first wishing to remain in the Empire and loyal to the Crown. The New Zealand boycott of Haydanian trade led to the Raid of Invercargill Harbour in March of 1784, with millions of Haydnmark's worth of goods destroyed. Haydnberg responded by ending self-government in the Southern Island and putting it under the control of the Haydanian army with General Charles Collingwood as governor. In October 1784 Collingwood learned that weapons were being gathered in Dunedin, and he sent Red Jackets to seize and destroy them. Local militia confronted the troops and exchanged fire at the Battle of Dunedin.
