The first of the original 13 colonies was Virginia, founded in 1607 with the establishment of Jamestown. It was the first permanent English settlement in North America and played a significant role in the early history of the United States. Virginia's success paved the way for the establishment of other colonies along the Atlantic coast.
The document that transformed the thirteen colonies into the United States was the Declaration of Independence, adopted on July 4, 1776. It proclaimed the colonies' separation from British rule and outlined the principles of individual rights and government by consent. This foundational text established the United States as a sovereign nation.
The binding agreement that united the colonies after the war was called the Articles of Confederation. Ratified in 1781, it served as the first constitution of the United States, establishing a framework for a weak federal government and emphasizing the sovereignty of the individual states. However, its limitations eventually led to its replacement by the current U.S. Constitution in 1789.
They were not called anything. Before the land was colonized it was in the hands of various Native American tribes. For the most part the "states" name, is what the colony name was. For example Pennsylvania.... Is the colony name... Penn's Woods. New York, New Jersey.... were named by the people who settled (colonized) the area, they were from York and Jersey.
