The first Dutch person to land on Mauritius was Willem Anthonisz van der Stel in 1598. He was part of an expedition led by the Dutch East India Company, which sought to explore and establish trade routes in the Indian Ocean. The expedition marked the beginning of European interest in the island, although it was not colonized by the Dutch until later.
The Australian island state of Tasmania was named after Dutch explorer Abel Tasman. It was not named by Tasman: originally, Tasman named the land Van Diemen's Land, after the Dutch Governor of Batavia, Antony Van Diemen. In 1856, Queen Victoria approved a petition to rename Van Diemen's Land to Tasmania, in honour of its discoverer.

The Dutch made land claims in present-day New York State primarily for economic reasons, seeking to establish a profitable trading hub in North America. They were motivated by the lucrative fur trade and aimed to exploit the region's natural resources. The strategic location of New Amsterdam (modern-day New York City) at the mouth of the Hudson River also provided an advantageous point for trade and military defense. Additionally, the Dutch sought to expand their influence and counter the growing dominance of other European powers in the region.
There are two: Hawaii and Alaska. Neither shares a land border with any other US state.
