Social Studies: Population data of NZ from 1836-1901

Today in Social Studies, we have been looking at the population data of NZ from 1836-1901. We started creating a line graph as well as answering some following questions given. 

What does the graph show us?
The graph shows us that over time the Maori population dropped, whereas the European population increased.

Why do you think the numbers of Maoris change? 
The Maoris population changed because they suffered from fatal diseases and, Europeans attacked them during the Musket Wars.  

Why do you think the number of Europeans changed?
Because the land was sold to them, transporting them over to New Zealand, making their population grow.   

Here is the graph I made:
