Xavier Harkonnen Posted October 19, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 19, 2014 (edited) Section 1: History of Connecticut The name Connecticut is derived from anglicized versions of the Algonquian word that has been translated as "long tidal river" and "upon the long river." The Connecticut region was inhabited by multiple Indian tribes prior to European settlement and colonization, including the Mohicans, and Paugusetts. The first European explorer in Connecticut was a Dutch explorer. After he explored this region in 1614, Dutch fur traders sailed up the Connecticut River (then known by the Dutch as Versche Rivier – "Fresh River") and built a fort at Dutch Point in what is present-day Hartford, which they called "House of Hope". Connecticut developed a conservative elite that would dominate colonial affairs in the years leading up to the American Revolution. The forces of liberalism and democracy emerged slowly, but solidly, encouraged by the entrepreneurship of the business community, and the new religious freedom. With the establishment of Yale College in 1701, Connecticut had an important institution to educate clergy and civil leaders. After two centuries of growth, and the eventual assimilation into the American Commonwealth, the inhabitants and descendants of the region resolved themselves into forming a unified nation, styled as a Republic. Being granted their independence by the Commonwealth, the formal Republic of Connecticut was created as a legal political entity.
