Welcome to Connecticut!
  FAST FACTS: While Connecticut was first explored by the Dutch, who founded trading posts, the first permanent settlements were made by English Puritans from Massachusetts, starting in 1633. From the first, Connecticut enjoyed a great measure of political independence, proclaiming in its Fundamental Orders of 1639 a democratic principle of government based on the will of the people. These Orders were the first written Constitution of a democratic government; that’s why Connecticut today is nicknamed "The Constitution State.")
