<h2>Answer: New Jersey
</h2>
The thirteen original British colonies that made up the United States were: Virginia, New York, Massachusetts, Maryland, Rhode Island, Connecticut, New Hampshire, Delaware, North Carolina, New Jersey, South Carolina, Pennsylvania and Georgia.
However, the lands of New Jersey were first claimed by the Dutch as the <em>Dutch colony of New Netherlands</em>, but were later ruled by the English after the surrender of the Amsterdam fortress in 1664.
Books back then were hand written and made by hand so it took a lot of time an hard work to assemble one, that's the reason they were so expensive.
