No country controlled land in North America in 1500. Columbus didn't sail until 1492 and he didn't reach North America. Cabot arrives in 1498 and claims northern coast for England and by 1500 Columbus is imprisoned for mismanagement . He will die in 1506 thinking he had found Asia. It won't be until 1513 that de Leon claims Florida for Spain.
