Which city was the New Zealand capital before Wellington?
The first capital of New Zealand was Russell. William Hobson purchased land at Okiato with the primary intent of establishing the country's first capital. It was named Russell in 1840 and the name was later transferred to Kororāreka, few miles north. The capital was moved to Auckland in 1841. Soon after this, the settlement at Okiato was burned to the ground.
