Why did Maori and the British sign a treaty?

We're going to watch this series from the TVNZ about how Te Tiriti came about over the next few days.  Watch closely and use your 'synthesizing' skills to pice together answers to our questions;

 - why did the British create a treaty?
 - why did the Maori sign it?
 - what did it mean for maori?
 - what did it mean for the British and everyone else?
