Alternate Timelines

Scenarios about 'Auckland'

Auckland is New Zealand's largest urban area, situated on the North Island's isthmus between the Waitematā and Manukau harbors. Established as a British colonial settlement in 1840, it served as New Zealand's capital until 1865 and developed into a significant Pacific trading hub.
