overview

New Jersey had inhabitants possibly as early as the 11th century BC. The Lenni Lenape or Delaware Indians were fishing, farming, and hunting on the Jersey coast when the first Europeans arrived. New Jersey was claimed and influenced by many early European settlers, including the French, English, and Dutch. Until the American Revolution, the state was primarily under British rule.

Like its bordering neighbor Pennsylvania, New Jersey was a haven for Quakers in the 17th and 18th centuries. In the 19th century, it was the cynosure for some of the country's most significant contributions to science and invention. John Stevens created the first steam locomotive and the world's first steam ferry line in the early 1800s. Later that century, Thomas Edison, inventor of the electric light, film projector, and record player, set up shop in Menlo Park, and later West Orange.

The state's history is one of its greatest tourist attractions. The pivotal battles of Trenton and Monmouth were fought there during the Revolution and Washington's troops wintered in Morristown for two years. Currently, New Jersey is a favorite American and international vacation spot because of its appealing beaches, geographic convenience to major cities such as New York and Philadelphia, and its extensive attractions that include water parks, state parks, museums, and gambling casinos. Mountains and coasts coexist in this small state, creating ski opportunities and fantasy summer water play. New Jersey offers fun for everyone from the low-budget family vacationers to the glamorous travelers who frequent the casinos.
