How did the Dutch policies in New Netherland undermine support for the Dutch rule?

History

Answer:

New Netherland was a region that included parts of New York, Delaware, New Jersey and Connecticut. Dutch control of the New Netherland lasted only about 50 years.

They were ruled by a patroon system created by The West India Company in order to establish a prosperous trading empire. The patroon system consisted in granting huge parcels of land and feudal rights to individuals who could finance the settlement of 50 adults, this was only granted to those with connections to The West India Company and resulted in exclusive political power in the hands of a few.

The Dutch emphasized in trading posts and did not encourage the large-scale movement of their population (which undermined support for Dutch rule) only small traders were willing to seek out their fortunes along the North American shore. They gave North America less attention compared to it's other colonies and were more focused on trading than on politics.

In 1642 and the following years, English settlers arrived to western Long Island. They were well received by the Director of New Netherland (Willem Kieft). Willem Kieft gave them lands and authorized the establishment of town governments. (Mespath, Hempstead, Vlissingen and Gravesend). They were granted liberty of creating their own politics and they established them soon as their territories were granted but the next director Stuyvesant opposed to it.

While English setters were expanding he Dutch and English were battling for supremacy in shipping and trade, and fought three naval wars (1652 - 1674), Charles II promised New Netherland to his brother James, Duke of York. James sent Colonel Richard Nicolls to seize the colony. Their army arrived to Long Island in August and moved to Brooklyn enlisting support from the English towns and offered fair treatment for those who surrender.

Peter Stuyvesant was forced to surrender the colony under generous circumstances.

Conclusion:

Dutch policies focused more on trading and since their patroons were free to rule their land, when the English came and convinced them to join them granting them trade benefits and wealth the Dutch empire was left with no option than to surrender.

Answer:

1.The Georgia Constitution gives some limits as to how arms can be borne by the people—the US Constitution does not state this explicitly. The Georgia Constitution also states how many people can sit on a jury (twelve); the US Constitution only gives one the right to a trial by jury.

2.The state government of Georgia is the U.S. state governmental body established by the Georgia State Constitution. It is a republican form of government with three branches : the legislature, executive, and judiciary.

3. Georgia legislators split the difference when they toughened juvenile justice laws in 1994. They stiffened sentences for the most violent crimes, sending some teens to adult prisons. But lawmakers also gave courts discretion to keep some of the serious offenders in the state’s juvenile facilities.

4. Unfortunately, the legislative foundation for local government in Georgia is underdeveloped and

often self-contradictory due to frequent amendment. For instance, the Law on the Structure and

Operation of Executive Power has been amended twice since its adoption in 1990. Furthermore,

several essential areas lack any legislative basis; key fields such as regional organization and the office

of regional state commissioner are determined by presidential decree, not parliamentary legislation.

The 1995 Constitution failed to stipulate a model for administrative-territorial organization. Instead,

its second clause postpones settlement of the issue until restoration of the country’s territorial integrity.

Meanwhile, the system of local government is determined by the Organic Law on Local Government

and Self-governance, adopted in October 1997. Despite many juridical flaws, this law provided the

basis for the development of a relatively efficient system of self-government. The Organic Law on

Local Government superceded several contradictory normative laws passed between 199
