The Dutch East India Company :)
first it's called "Sunda Kelapa" then after defeated by the dutch, it changed to "Batavia"
The Dutch first settled in the area in the 1600s. Native Americans were the Delaware, Mahican and Wappinger tribes--part of the Algonquin language group.
In the 1600s, economic opportunities, political alliances, and religious affiliations often motivated individuals to sail under foreign flags. An Englishman might choose to sail for the Dutch due to the lucrative trade routes and the Dutch East India Company's dominance in the spice trade. Similarly, an Italian might align with the French to escape political instability in their own region or to benefit from French patronage in exploration and commerce. Overall, personal ambition and the search for wealth often transcended national loyalties during this era.
