The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- The conflicts did not divide neatly along ethnic lines, as Māori fought on both sides and individuals of European origin also fought alongside Māori forces.
- Though the wars were initially localised conflicts triggered by tensions over disputed land purchases, they escalated dramatically from 1860 as the government became convinced it was facing a united Māori resistance to further land sales and a refusal to acknowledge Crown sovereignty.
- Political divisions also existed among people of European descent.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The New Zealand Wars article was read about 100,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 82 and blocks with 89: each hit it takes is cut by 36 %.
