New Hampshire is part of the New England region in the United States.
Four of the original thirteen states were part of New England: Massachusetts, Connecticut, Rhode Island, and New Hampshire. Vermont had not become part of New England yet-it was part of New York at the time.
You call a person born in New Hampshire born in New England because New England, when the USA was just starting, was still ruled by the British. The "New" part in front of "England" is there because the British were making a new colony in America. New England today is all of the little states in the North-East part of America. New Hampshire is one of those small states.
There were four colonies that were a part of New England. They were known at the time as British America. They were the Province of New Hampshire, the Colony of Rhode Island, Providence Plantations, Massachusetts, and Connecticut.
The New England Colonies, which were administered by England, included Connecticut, Rhode Island and Providence Plantations, Massachusetts, and the Province of New Hampshire.
