It's starting to get serious. Fun facts about NZ, I forgot or didn't know.

  • It was the first country in the world to let women vote.
  • They also have a Property Act, which lets couples, if they have been together for about three years are allowed to divide their property equally, if they break up.
  • same sex couples are not legally allowed to marry in NZ but the country passed a Civil Unions Act in 2005 allowing any couple to join in a legal relationship with full legal rights.

How awesome is that?
