England and then the Netherlands are the European countries who became Suriname's colonizer.

Specifically, the English established a settlement in Suriname as of 1630. Within twenty (20) years, they had taken over as their capital Paramaribo, a former Dutch trading post on the coast. But by the Treaty of Breda of July 31, 1667, the English were succeeded by the Dutch as Suriname's mother country and colonial ruler.
