New Zealand wants to show an integral image of the country
(The North Island and the South Island) and the harness racing on the
occasion of de World championship 2010
The North Island is one of the two main islands of New Zealand.
Several important cities are in the North Island, notably
New Zealand's largest city, Auckland, and Wellington, the
capital, located at the southern extremity of the island.
Around 76% of New Zealand's population lives in the North Island.
The South Island is the other island of New Zealand. Along its
west coast runs the mountain chain of the Southern Alps;
Aoraki/Mount Cook is the highest point, 3,754 m above sea level.
The South Island is often called the Mainland because it is larger
than the North Island, and because it existed first according to
the corresponding Māori legend. The North Island is more
populated, being home to three million out of a total of four
million Kiwis.
The World championship in New Zealand is planned in
February/March 2010
Decision:
Worldchampionships will be raced in the future if necessary
with both trotters and pacers.
