The fate of the colonists is unknown. There are many theories including their having moved south to merge with the friendly natives, moving west on to the mainland, moving north to the Chesapeake Bay. Some may have tried to sail back to England. We just don't know.

Columbus "founded" America in 1492 sailing for Portugal. The first people in America were the Norweigan Vikings in the 11th century.

It was the longest-lived of the modern empires, spanning almost six centuries, from the capture of Ceuta (South of Gibraltar and now Spanish) in 1415 to the handover of Macau in 1999.
