New York played a major role in the early history of the nation, with several remnants of its colonial past still standing today. Europeans first came to New York in 1524, when Italian explorer Giovanni da Verrazano discovered the land while under the service of the French crown. From the time of its discovery, the state’s reputation as a melting pot began taking shape. Struggles between Dutch and British settlers marked the colonial period in New York. Famous colonial landmarks represent the blend of cultures that claimed sections of New York. Several famous places remain untouched by the passage of time. As the second largest colony and possessor of one of the American colonies' most important ports, the state of New York played a major role in the Revolutionary War. More than one-third of the war’s battles occurred in New York, with the Continental Army holding the vital Hudson River and the British controlling New York City. Visitors to New York with an interest in history will find a wealth of Revolutionary War landmarks, from battlefields in scenic parks to buildings that sheltered Revolutionary War greats.
