According to the latest United States census of 2010, New Jersey recorded an official population of 8,791,894 citizens. With such a heavy population, it is United States most densely populated state and also the second wealthiest. The history of New Jersey dates back to the early 17th century when the when [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] the area was inhibited by a historical tribe known by the name of Lenape. These early settlers found home all along the coastline. Later on, the area was taken over by the Native Americans who remained settled there for almost 2800 years. After this the Europeans started coming over. The Dutch and the Swedes were among one of the firsts to set foot on this land. Then came the British who took over control and named the area the Province of New Jersey after the largest British Channel Island, Jersey.
New Jersey being such [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] a large land area can be broken down into 5 regions based on its natural geography and population statistics.
