New Zealand (Maori Aotearoa), self-governing country in the South Pacific Ocean, a member of the Commonwealth of Nations, situated southeast of Australia. It comprises two large islands—North Island and South Island—and numerous smaller islands, including Stewart Island to the south of South Island. The area of New Zealand is 270,534 sq km (104,454 sq mi). Associated with New Zealand are Ross Dependency (in Antarctica), Niue, Tokelau, and the Cook Islands (in the Pacific Ocean). The capital of the country is Wellington. Auckland is the largest city. New Zealand is a generally mountainous country with several large regions of plains. Two-thirds of the area is between about 200 and 1,070 m (about 650 and 3,500 ft) above sea level; the country has more than 220 named mountains exceeding a height of 7,500 ft (2,300 m). North Island has a very irregular coastline, particularly on its northern extremity. In the vicinity of the city of Auckland, the peninsula is only 10 km (6 mi) wide. The principal mountain ranges of North Island extend along the eastern side. A volcanic range in the north central region has three active volcanic peaks: Mount Ruapehu (2,797 m/9,177 ft), the highest point on the island; Mount Ngauruhoe (2,291 m/7,515 ft); and Tongariro (1,968 m/6,458 ft). Mount Taranaki (2,518 m/8,261 ft), a solitary, extinct volcanic cone, is situated near the western extremity of the island.
