find it, because it didn't exist, but he' reached a river to which he gave his name. Interest­ed by the stories told to them by Hudson after his return, the Dutch sent other boats to take posses­sion of the land discovered by Hudson and gave it the name "New Netherlands The Dutch bought the island of Manhattan from the Native Americans in 1626 and built their capital, New Amsterdam, there. In 1664 this territory was taken over by the English and they changed the name of New Amsterdam to New York City. New Netherland became the colo­ny of New York.
