Article 1
In article 1 the English version says that the Maori have to give up complete control and on the Maori version it says that they still had control over there tribes.
Article 2
They were only allowed to sell their land to the British on the English version and on the Maori version it says if they have not reached the price that is suited to them or the British crown did not approve then the Maori could sell to someone else.
Article 3
On the English version, it says 'Maori have the same right as the British subject' and on the Maori version it says 'Maori have the same rights as the British subject' but it also says that 'Maori have protection from the British' and that is not on the English version.
