New York
the 27th-most extensive, the fourth-most populous, and the seventh-most densely populated of the 50 United States. The city is the nucleus of the premier gateway for legal immigration to the United States. A global power city, New York City exerts a significant impact upon commerce, finance, media, art, fashion, research, technology, education, and entertainment. The home of the United Nations Headquarters, New York City is an important center for international diplomacy and has been described as the cultural and financial capital of the world, as well as the world's most economically powerful city. New York City alone makes up over 40 percent of the population of New York State. Both the state and New York City were named for the 17th century Duke of York, future King James II of England. The earliest Europeans in New York were French colonists and Jesuit missionaries who came down from settlements at Montreal for trade and proselytizing. New York was inhabited by various tribes of Algonquian and Iroquoian speaking Native Americans at the time Dutch settlers moved into the region in the early 17th century. more at: http://en.wikipedia.org
