Answer 1

The heavy English losses in the naval wars with the Dutch led to a transfer of power, resulting in New Netherland becoming New York.

Step-by-step explanation:

The heavy English losses in the latest series of naval wars with the Dutch had an impact on English-Dutch relations. The English military expedition in 1664 led to the surrender of the Dutch settlers in New Amsterdam and the transfer of power to the English. The formal peace treaty in 1667 confirmed the transfer of power, and New Netherland officially became New York.
