In the 1600s, the Dutch established settlements primarily in areas of present-day New York, where they created New Amsterdam as a trading hub. They also settled in parts of the Caribbean, such as Curaçao and Aruba, and along the coasts of South America, particularly in what is now Suriname. Additionally, the Dutch were active in Southeast Asia, notably in the Indonesian archipelago, where they established a strong colonial presence.
In the 1600s, notable Dutch explorers included Henry Hudson, who explored parts of North America and is best known for the Hudson River, which bears his name. Abel Tasman is another prominent figure, recognized for his voyages to New Zealand and Tasmania, making significant contributions to the mapping of the region. Additionally, Willem Janszoon made one of the first recorded European contacts with Australia. These explorers played key roles in expanding Dutch maritime knowledge and establishing trade routes.
