The Netherlands claimed several areas in the Americas during the 17th century, primarily focusing on parts of the Caribbean and the northeastern region of North America. They established the colony of New Netherland, which included present-day New York City and parts of New Jersey, Delaware, and Connecticut. Additionally, the Dutch held territories in the Caribbean, such as Aruba, Curacao, and Bonaire, as well as short-lived settlements in Brazil and other regions. Their colonial activities were part of broader European competition for resources and trade routes in the New World.
