The extent of British influence in New Zealand in 1800 was the existence of whaling ships and flax traders. Americans and French were also present in New Zealand waters. Missionary presence had not even been established yet, and gun traders weren't significant until about the time of the Musket Wars. New Zealand not British prior to 1840 annexation. However, under the 1788 amended charter of the New South Wales colony, islands adjacent to that region of Australia within the bounds of 10°37'S and 43°39'S are included under it. This includes all but the Southern half of South Island. Recognizing this might be like recognizing the Treaty of Tordesillas on this map, but there is some basis for most of New Zealand being counted as a British colony on this map.

Araucania and Patagonia not colonized or occupied by Europeans. Mapuche groups prevented Southward expansion by Spanish. Chile and Argentina began occupying the region from 1843-1902. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Patagonia#Chilean_and_Argentine_expansion_.281843-1902.29

The Spanish East Indies in the Pacific. After its discovery in 1521, all of Micronesia was included in the Captaincy General of the Philippines of Spain, but his claim effectively began in 1885, the year in which the Micronesia partitioned between Spain and Germany.
