If the Dutch won the 3rd Anglo-Dutch war, how come they lost New Amsterdam ? 62.173.88.59 10:31, 10 February 2007 (UTC) reply

They traded the recaptured New Amsterdam for the English recognizing Dutch sovereignty over Suriname. English colonization had swamped New Amsterdam, so the Dutch decided that they'd rather solidfy their claim on a profitable colony. — Laura Scudder ☎ 15:15, 10 February 2007 (UTC) reply

Staten Land redirects to New Zealand- that can't be right. Tigerboy1966  17:18, 19 February 2012 (UTC)

Hello fellow Wikipedians,

I have just added archive links to 2 external links on Treaty of Westminster (1674). Please take a moment to review my edit. If necessary, add {{ cbignore}} after the link to keep me from modifying it. Alternatively, you can add {{ nobots|deny=InternetArchiveBot}} to keep me off the page altogether. I made the following changes:

• Added archive http://web.archive.org/web/20070327203719/http://www.1911encyclopedia.org:80/Malay_Archipelago to http://www.1911encyclopedia.org/Malay_Archipelago
• Added archive http://web.archive.org/web/20070222024257/http://www.1911encyclopedia.org:80/Long_Island to http://www.1911encyclopedia.org/Long_Island

When you have finished reviewing my changes, please set the checked parameter below to true or failed to let others know (documentation at {{ Sourcecheck}}).
