Delaware Overview
At the same time, after the creation of the colony of Virginia, the British also claimed these lands, it was after the first governor of the English colony in Jamestown, Sir Thomas West, Baron de la Warr (De La Warr), that the river, the bay, and later the state of Delaware were named.
In 1638, the settlement of Fort Christina was founded in the area of the modern city of Wilmington, which became the first in the newly created colony of New Sweden. Concerned about the strengthening of Swedish influence, the Dutch built their trading post in Delaware in 1651, and three years later, in 1654, they established control over the entire territory of New Sweden, including its lands in the New Holland colony.
In 1664, Delaware, like other Dutch possessions in North America, came under the control of England (namely, the Duke of York). In 1682, the Delaware lands were leased to William Penn, founder of Pennsylvania, and the colony remained dependent on “Penn’s Land” for decades to come. In 1704, Delaware had its own legislature – the Colonial Assembly.
Although the population of Delaware as a whole was quite loyal to the British authorities, in the second half of the 18th century the number of supporters of independence in the state was constantly growing. On June 15, 1776, the Delaware Colonial Assembly declared separation from the metropolis (and from Pennsylvania), and already on September 20 of the same year, the Delaware State Constitution was adopted. Although Delaware was occupied by the British during the American Revolutionary War, the state-raised regiment fought with the Continental Army. Following the independence of the United States of America on December 7, 1787, Delaware ratified the US Constitution, thus becoming the first state of the United States.
Delaware’s largest city, Wilmington, now has a population of approximately 70,000 (with Wilmington included in the metropolitan area that has grown up around Philadelphia, Pennsylvania). The state capital, Dover, has about 40,000 residents.
Delaware’s main economic sectors are services, agriculture, tourism, and, to a lesser extent, industry. A characteristic feature of the state is extremely corporate-friendly legislation, due to which more than half of all American public companies are registered in Delaware. Corporate taxes make up about a fifth of the state’s budget.
