🇳🇿⚖️ New Zealand is one of the only developed democracies without a single, supreme written constitution. So what holds it together? Not a rigid legal document, but a powerful set of *unwritten rules, conventions, and a deep-seated culture of political trust.*
This video dives into the invisible architecture of New Zealand's legal system. We explore the foundational conventions of parliamentary government, the sacred but fragile role of the Treaty of Waitangi, and ask the critical question: what happens when politicians decide to break the gentleman's agreement?
