Because the Netherlands were very wealthy, there was not a lot of incentive for Dutch settlers to come to the New World. As a result, the inhabitants of the colony tended to be English. When the British decided to claim New Netherlands, The Duke of York launched a war flotilla to capture it. There simply weren't enough Dutch citizens who were willing to fight to defend the colony, so it was taken without any bloodshed.

They were a colony because they came and built New Amsterdam well before the English came to Plymouth. The English didn't want to control them, but wanted the location. New Amsterdam had a good natural port and good resources and THAT is what they were after from the Dutch.
The natural port is a main reason why they wanted it. Good land for farming was also another reason.
Because the Dutch (New Netherland) colony was a threat to England because of its trade. It was also a threat cause of the dutch's expanding settlements and it's location.

The dutch founded New Amsterdam, which was the original name of New York, as a way to entice more settlers to establish a strong base of operations at the mouth of the Hudson river, to protect the trade going on between dutch merchants in New York and the Native American tribes living further north along the Hudson, primarily trading in furs and pelts. New Amsterdam served as the seat of colonial government in the dutch colony of New Netherland, as well as a regional centre for commerce and communication, as well as the principal seaport for the colony.
