Ahead of our Time  

Stumbled on this entry in wikipedia and have no reason to doubt it ...
On November 2, 1868, New Zealand officially adopted a standard time to be observed nationally, and was perhaps the first country to do so. It was based on the longitude 172° 30' East of Greenwich, that is 11 hours 30 minutes ahead of Greenwich Mean Time. This standard was known as New Zealand Mean Time.
World leaders in another field it seems.
