England gained control over the New Netherlands twice. The first time was in 1664, when four English frigates sailed into the colony's harbor and demanded its surrender. In 1673, a Dutch fleet of 21 ships returned to the colony and recaptured it. Despite this victory, the Netherlands' were defeated in Europe and surrendered New Netherlands to England in 1674 when they signed the Treaty of Westminster.
