Zeeland is a province in the Netherlands and Abel Tasman (who was from the Netherlands) named New Zealand after it, after he discovered it in 1642.

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.
