dbo:abstract Transilvania, en su forma inglesa Transylvania, es el nombre dado a una colonia que se estableció en territorios del Sur del río Ohio que actualmente forman parte del estado de Kentucky, en Estados Unidos. (es) The Transylvania Colony, also referred to as the Transylvania Purchase, was a short-lived, extra-legal colony founded in early 1775 by North Carolina land speculator Richard Henderson, who formed and controlled the Transylvania Company. Henderson and his investors had reached an agreement to purchase a vast tract of Cherokee lands west of the southern and central Appalachian Mountains through the acceptance of the Treaty of Sycamore Shoals with most leading Cherokee chieftains then controlling these lands. In exchange for the land the tribes received goods worth, according to the estimates of some scholars, about 10,000 British pounds ($1.5 million U.S. in 2016). To further complicate matters, this early American frontier land was also claimed by both the Virginia Colony (particularly following Lord Dunmore's War) and Province of North Carolina. The Transylvania Colony was located in what is now the central and western parts of Kentucky, and a chunk of north central Tennessee. The American pioneer and frontier explorer Daniel Boone was hired by Henderson to establish the Wilderness Road going through the Cumberland Gap and into southeastern Kentucky to facilitate settlement. A governmental compact was concluded by the settlers in May, 1775. Most settlement was forestalled by the Revolutionary War, except around established towns. Henderson's Transylvania claim in Kentucky was invalidated by the Virginia General Assembly in 1778, and the remaining Tennessee portion was invalidated by North Carolina in 1783. Henderson was compensated with a land grant along the Ohio River in western Kentucky and the current town of Henderson was founded there. (en) Transylvania była krótko istniejącą kolonią brytyjską na obszarze dzisiejszego amerykańskiego stanu Kentucky. Kolonia została utworzona w roku 1775 przez sędziego Richarda Hendersona z Karoliny Północnej, który odkupił ziemie od Czirokezów. Najsłynniejszym „obywatelem” Transylvanii był myśliwy i traper Daniel Boone, który został wynajęty przez Hendersona do wytyczenia Dzikiej Drogi przez Przełęcz Cumberland do środkowego Kentucky, gdzie założył warowną osadę , wówczas jedyne zamieszkane przez białych miejsce, a zarazem stolica Transylvanii. Transylvania przestała istnieć z chwilą, gdy Wirginia unieważniła zakup Hendersona w roku 1776. (pl)
