Manhattan was originally owned by the Algonquin Indians until it was purchased by Dutch settlers in 1626 and later captured by the British in 1664.

During the late 19th century, New York City became a global center of trade and immigration following the Civil War. Cornelius Vanderbilt helped create vast wealth by consolidating rail companies.

Skyscrapers rose to accommodate the growing population, though New York had to adapt to new digital technologies in later years to remain influential.
