Prior to the founding of the United States, the Connecticut colonies were chartered by the King of England, Charles II.

Previous to that there were a few Dutch trading posts.

Prior to that, the parts of the area now called Connecticut was claimed by various Native American tribal nations, including the Pequot, Narragansett, Mohegan, Wampanoag, Nipmuc, Mattabesec, Quinnepiac, Hammonasset, Tunxis, and Podunk.
