What If New Zealand Had Not Fought in World War I?

From Voxy.co.uk.

Anzac Day is approaching (Australian and New Zealand Army Corps), a historian is looking into what might have happened had the country stayed out of the war.

New Zealand sent 100,000 men to fight for Britain and 18,000 of those died.

It is hard to imagine the country not joining the war effort.  The country had already developed a strong sense of national identity. 

Many of New Zealand's casualties came at Gallipoli.

The efforts of New Zealand and Australia in the First World War are too often overlooked.  And for that matter, all the countries of the British Empire.

Congratulations on Anzac Day

I'd like to be the first American to congratulate Australia and New Zealand on this national day, ANZAC Day which has been celebrated since 1916 and this year with even more emphasis due to the locating of the wreck of the HMAS Sydney off Australia's west coast.

ANZAC Day honors the brave soldiers who have served n the two countries' armed forces and also marks the date in 1915 when the Australian and New Zealand Army Corps stormed ashore in the ill-fated Gallipoli Campaign to capture Istanbul from the Ottoman Turks. Eight thousand Australians and 2,700 New Zealanders died in the effort.

Again, a Tip of the Hat. --Cooter
