Before New York was possessed by the English, it was controlled by the Dutch. Under Dutch rule, this territory was actually called New Amsterdam.
Dutch Governor Peter Stuyvesant abdicates New Amsterdam, the capital of New Netherland, to an English naval squadron under Colonel Richard Nicolls. Dutch Stuyvesant hoped to resist English, but then he lacked manpower and his subordinates refused to support him. Following its acquisition, New Amsterdam’s name was changed to New York<span>, in honor of the Duke of York, who organized the mission.</span>

Some similarities between monotheistic religions include:

The worship of one supreme being.
The belief in an afterlife.
Loving the Supreme being with everything.

<h3>How do monotheistic religions relate to each other?</h3>

Monotheistic religions are similar in that they all worship a single supreme being in their religions instead of several. As a result, there is a strong belief in the need to worship this one supreme being with all of yourself because of their all powerfulness.

Monotheistic religions also believe that there is an afterlife waiting for them. To access this afterlife, they need to be faithful to their supreme being and be good to others while on Earth.
