The first European encounter with Native Americans occurred in 1492 when Christopher Columbus arrived in the Bahamas, while the first permanent European settlement, St. Augustine, was established by the Spanish in 1565. This represents a span of 73 years. Several factors contributed to this lengthy interval, including the challenges of exploration, the need for military and logistical support, the search for profitable resources, and the complex interactions with indigenous populations that often led to conflict and negotiation.

The first permanent settlement in the Western Hemisphere was started by the Spanish. In 1565, they established the city of St. Augustine in northeastern Florida and it's still thriving today.
The Spanish founded a settlement in what is now Florida and named it Saint Augustine. It is considered historic because it was the first European settlement in what is now the United States (founded in 1565, forty years before Jamestown). Saint Augustine was also the capital of Spanish Florida for two centuries.
