Fort Mose was important because it was the first legally sanctioned free African settlement in what is now the United States. Established in 1738, it provided a safe haven for escaped enslaved Africans seeking freedom from the nearby British colonies in Florida. It formed a crucial part of the underground railroad system and served as a symbol of resistance against slavery.
