Answer:
1- Connecticut was not part of the Middle Colonies.
2- The European country that first explored the Hudson River was France.
3- The Middle Colonies were tolerant to many religions.
Explanation:
1- The Middle Colonies were the middle region of the Thirteen Colonies in British America, formed by New Jersey, Pennsylvania, New York and Delaware. In 1776, in connection with the American Revolution, they became independent from Britain, and joined the United States.
The area was discovered for the West by Henry Hudson, who in 1609 made a voyage of discovery in the area, and soon followed a wave of European settlers. Large parts of the area were part of the New Netherlands until about 1664.
2- The Hudson River is a river of 506 km in length, that flows in south direction mainly by the state of New York, in the United States of America, forming, in its last section, the border between the states of New York and New Jersey. The name of the river comes from Henry Hudson, an Englishman who sailed on behalf of France and the Netherlands, who explored the river in 1609. However, the first European to explore it was the Italian Giovanni da Verrazano, in 1524, whose expedition was financed by the Florentine merchants of Lyon and by Francis I of France.
3- The Middle Colonies had a rich soil, which allowed the area to come exporter of wheat and other beans. The shipbuilding and naval industries prospered due to the forestry abundance, and Pennsylvania had some successes in the textile and metallurgical industry. The Middle Colonies were populated with a great ethnic and religious diversity, including migrants from all over Europe.
