Didn't other countries like The Netherlands, Spain etc lay claim to some states?

I have no idea about all the history over there cos I'm a Limey :P


Holland was one of the first colonizers.
New York was Nieuw Amsterdam.
Albany was Beverwyck.

They basically invented NYC.
And Albany is a really old town for how inland it is.

I really wonder what life would be like if this area was still Dutch.
I honestly think their influence was largely beneficial as things go.
