Note: Originally called New Amsterdam, New York started as a 17th-century Dutch settlement established at the southern tip of Manhattan Island which served as the seat of the colonial government in the New Netherland territory. It was renamed New York in 1665 in honour of the then Duke of York (later James II of England) after English forces seized control of Manhattan Island, along with the rest of the Dutch colony.
