Minuit's settlement was also a haven for Huguenots seeking religious liberty.
In 1640,Peter Stuyvesant was appointed governor,and ruled as a member of the Dutch Reformed Church.He curtailed the city's religious freedoms and closed all of the city's taverns.The colony was granted self-government in 1652.In 1664,the British conquered the area and renamed it New York.The Dutch regained it in August 1673,renaming the city "New Orange",before ceding New Netherland permanently to the English for what is now Surinam in November 1674.
