The first reference to colonization that I can think of is when Abraham's father left the city of Ur to settle in Syria.
In fact, humans have been wandering around the world ever since the day of Australopithecus.

∙ 15y agoIn 1619, a Dutch ship tied up at the colony of Jamestown in Virginia. The captain paid for some tobacco it took aboard with about 20 black African captives. The “slaves” were probably seized as a prize from a slave trader bound for the Spanish West Indies. The popular theory has been that the blacks became “indentured servants,” like white settlers who could not afford passage to the colonies. There is no record of this in the papers dealing with Virginia or Jamestown. The word “slave” did not appear in records of Virginia until 1656 and laws dealing with “slaves” did not appear until the 1660s.

When did England colonize Canada?
It didn't happen in just one year. Colonization attempts started in 1584 when Amadas and Barlow came to Roanoke Island in what is now North Carolina. Another expedition was sent in 1585, and another in 1587. The 1587 colony has come to be known as the lost colony. In 1603 Jamestown in Virginia was settled (but not without many problems). After that there was a succession of colonization voyages (Mayflower, etc.) throughout the 17th and 18th centuries. My more learned colleagues will be able to give you correct information on the later voyages.
