New York is a state in the Mid-Atlantic and Northeastern regions of the United States and is the nation's third most populous.
The state of New York is often referred to as New York State to distinguish it from New York City.
New York City, which is geographically the largest city in the state and most populous in the United States, is known for its history as a
gateway for immigration to the United States and its status as a financial, cultural, transportation, and manufacturing center. According
to the U.S. Department of Commerce, it is also a destination of choice for many foreign visitors. Both state and city were named for the
17th century Duke of York, James Stuart, future James II and VII of England and Scotland.
New York was inhabited by the Algonquin, Iroquois, and Lenape Native American groups at the time Dutch and French nationals moved into the
region in the early 17th century. First claimed by Henry Hudson in 1609, the region came to have Dutch forts at Fort Orange, near the site
of the present-day capital of Albany in 1614. The Dutch colonized the Albany and Manhattan areas in 1624. The British took over Manhattan
and the colony by annexation in 1664.
The borders of the British colony, the Province of New York, were roughly similar to those of the present-day state. About one third of all
of the battles of the Revolutionary War took place in New York. New York became an independent state on July 9, 1776, and enacted its
constitution in 1777. The state ratified the United States Constitution on July 26, 1788 to become the 11th state
