Connecticut residents love pickles just as much as anyone else in the world, but they have one special law that most people don't have to worry about: in order for a pickle to be officially considered a pickle, it has to bounce

https://telegra.ph/file/5e93e7d6b5d1fa16feee6.jpgThe first European to explore Connecticut was from the Netherlands.

The Dutch explorer Adriaen Block first came to the area which is now known as Connecticut in 1614.
In the ship Onrust, he and his men explored about 60 miles (97 km) up the Connecticut river to the area which is now the capital of the state, Hartford.

It’s thanks to Adriaen Block and his men that the area of Connecticut was later colonized.

https://telegra.ph/file/a715b4e9eb362379f336a.jpgThe name Connecticut means “long tidal river”.
Before European colonization the region of Connecticut was inhabited by a number of Native American tribes such as the Paugussets, the Mohegans and the Pequots, who all spoke different languages from Algonquian language group.

The name Connecticut actually comes from the Algonquian word quinetucket which can be translated as “long tidal river”, “upon the long river” or “beside the long, tidal river”, both referring to the Connecticut River.
