The Dutch were the first settlers in New York, establishing Fort
Orange near Albany in 1624 and New Amsterdam on the island of
Manhattan a year later. After the English took over in the 1660s, the
colony was renamed New York, after the Duke of York. One of the
original 13 states to join the Union (it entered in 1788), New York is
known as the "Empire State." The state includes everything from
skyscrapers in Manhattan to rivers, mountains, and lakes in upstate
New York. Today, New York has the third largest population (after
California and Texas), and remains the financial center of the
country. The state flower is the rose, and the capital is Albany.
