Aoteara (the Symphony That Never Ends)

The islands called "New Zealand" in Homeline are the only group of Japanese-settled outer lands with cultural independence, apparently because large-scale settlement began when communications were still slow. They now have a population of about 160 million ~ all Japanese; the last Maori died more than e century ago. The Aotearans are more individualistic and less aristocratic than the Japanese of the home islands. A disproportionate number of the Japanese artistic and scientific accomplishments of the last several decades have come out of Aoteara.
