gulf of Mexico
In 1610, the Gulf of Mexico was explored by Spanish explorers seeking new trade routes and resources in the Americas. This exploration played a crucial role in expanding Spanish influence in the region and establishing trade networks with indigenous peoples.
The river explored by the spanish is the Colorado River.
Because it was first explored by Spanish conquistadors who named such body of water that way. Besides, several centuries later, Texas and Florida were also part of the Spanish empire, so they had the right to name such body of water as they pleased. The only territory in bordering the Gulf that was not owned by the Spanish was the Louisiana, which was on French hands. Therefore, all territories, bodies of water and geographic landmarks were already named by the time America was born in 1783.
