Image[edit]

I replaced the image used in this template with one actually associated with the Māori monarchs. This image was used as a masthead on a newspaper published by the monarchy in the late 1900s. I felt that although the Māori sovereignty flag is an attractive image, its use is inappropriate as its association with the Māori monarchs is tenuous to say the least.
