Tawhiao, the second Māori King of New Zealand, lived primarily in the Waikato region, particularly around the town of Ngāruawāhia. He resided at the settlement of Tūrangawaewae, which became the center of the King Movement. Tawhiao's leadership and residence were significant during the conflicts between the Māori and colonial forces in the 19th century.
