kiwi, kiwiland
n.

Normally used in respect of New Zealand or one of it's citizens. Also the flightless bird that lives only in New Zealand and provided the name.

Kiwiland is occasionally used as another name for the country New Zealand. "I am going to Kiwiland" The Kiwi is New Zealand's national bird that is preserved and is very rare. I am not fully sure of when it became in use, but is used in few countires to describe people who live in New Zealand. Kiwi is very commonly used nowadays in New Zealand as well as other countries. Kiwiland is used in other contries as another name for New Zealand, seeing how the Kiwi bird are only found in New Zealand. Use by almost all types of people.
