New York is underlaid by sedimentary rocks: sandstone, shale, limestone, and conglomerate. Many boundaries of New York are bodies of water, Lake Ontario, Saint Lawrence River, Lake Champlain, Poultney River, Lake Erie, and Niagara Rivers.

GOVERNMENT Initially, New York was a proprietary colony, the first of the Middle Atlantic region. The proprietor was James, Duke of York, yet he granted freedom of conscience to its inhabitants, which entailed a limited form of self-government. Although, James was not directly responsible for the running of New York and instead delegated his powers onto a governor. Richard Nicolls was the first acting governor of the New York colony, and it is under him that New Amsterdam became New York. Yet the proprietary form of government did cease in 1685 under the disastrous Edmund Andros, when New York became a Royal colony.
