Hello, I'm very interested in New Zealand. What can you tell me about it? 
 New Zealand is an island country in Oceania in the Pacific Ocean. 
 Interesting. I'd like to know more about New Zealand's economy. 
 Living standards in New Zealand fell behind those in Austraiia and Western Europe, and by 1982 New Zealand had the lowest per-capita income of all the developed nations (surveyed by the World Bank). 
 That's interesting. What else happened with its economic status? 
 Before New Zealand fell behind in living standards for its residents, high demand for agricultural products from the United Kingdom and the United States helped New Zealand residents achieve higher living standards than both Australia and Western Europe in the 1950s and 1960s. 
 Can you tell me anything else about New Zealand's economy? 
 New Zealand's main trading partners are China, Australia, the European Union, the United States, and Japan. 
 Thanks! What can you tell me about New Zealand's environment? 
 New Zealand is divided along its length by the Southern Alps. Weather climate conditions vary greatly on either side of these mountains. The West Coast of the South Island is very wet and semi-arid in the Central Otago and the Mackenzie Basin of inland Canterbury 
 Fascinating! What else can you tell me about its environment? 
 South Island cities are warmest in January. 
 Thank you for the information. Is there anything else you can tell me about New Zealand? 
 North Island cities in New Zealand are generally the warmest in February. 
 Thanks for the information. Have a great day! 
 Great! Let me know if there's anything else you'd like to know.
