Themes in American History

The previous comment identified British as one of the most important figures of that time period. To this agree, with their removal of the native American and development of wall street they played an important role for NYC development. However in my opinion I think  that the development of the economic engine know as NYC  must be attribute to Petrus Stuyvesant. A house is only as strong as its foundation. Petrus Stuyvesant introduce a measure of control and organization in NYC. He focused on the Economic potential of the city as the central means of control and life setting the foundation for economic growth of NYC.

Thinking of what NYC is today, its wealth and riches, the most valuable asset is and would always be the diversity of its people.     Extensively the dutch acceptance of various religions and culture spawned the melting pot city that is known today. Their recognition of strength through diversity and trade has molded NYC into its unique diversity . This diversity makes  NYC as the most diverse place in the world. That is in my opinion the greatest event and accomplishment achieved in that time period.
