No, Florida was not the first state discovered. The first European to arrive in Florida was Spanish explorer Juan Ponce de León in 1513. However, other regions of the Americas were encountered by Europeans earlier, such as the Norse exploration of parts of North America around 1000 AD. Florida's significance lies in its early Spanish exploration and colonization, rather than being the first state discovered.
