The correct answer to this open question is the following.

You forgot to include the options of the question. However, we can say the following.

The European power that was able to purchase a valuable island with "a few toys" was the Dutch.

The Dutch were the ones that said "The natives are only too happy to share ... For a copper kettle and a few toys, as beads and hatchets, they will sell you a whole Country ..."

It was the Dutch West India Company that founded the colony of New Netherlands in the territory that today is Manhattan, in New York. It was Peter Minuit, who buy the island to the Native American Indians that lived there in 1626. The tribe was called the Manhattans. However, things did not well or as the Dutch expected, and in 1641 they waged war against the Manhattans, killing so many Native American Indians.
