Best Answer

The first English attempt at colonization was in Newfoundland in the early 1400s. The leader was killed at sea thus the colony withered away. The next English attempt at colonization was at Roanoke NC. This settlement mysteriously vanished. Spain tried to colonize areas in the Carribean and Mexico in the 1510s. Columbus "founded" America in 1492 sailing for Portugal. The first people in America were the Norweigan Vikings in the 11th century.

The Portuguese Colonial Empire was the first European global empire in history. 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.
