The events that led to the founding of New York and New Jersey is that the "King of England" capture the Dutch colony of New Netherlands and gave the colony to his brother James, "Duke of York". James kept the large colony but changed its name. He changed it to "New York". He also gave the rest to his two best friends, John Berkeley and George Carteret. John and George split the land into colonies and named them East Jersey and West Jersey. Then in 1702, they came together and formed New Jersey.
