Which colony was first settled by dutch settlers?

The Dutch East India Company had a mission to explore North America's rivers. Dutch explorers were asked to claim unclaimed areas. The dutch explorers claimed and named the province of New Netherland which was the first Dutch colony in North America. New Netherland was part of what now is New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Maryland, Connecticut, and Delaware.

the correct answer is: the fact that the anti-federalist papers were considered poorly written.
