The first states of the United States were originally known as the Thirteen Colonies. These colonies were established by Great Britain along the Atlantic coast and included Virginia, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Maryland, Connecticut, Rhode Island, Delaware, North Carolina, South Carolina, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, New York, and Georgia. They declared independence from Britain in 1776, leading to the formation of the United States.
