St. Augustine, founded in 1565, was primarily contested between Spain and Great Britain. Spain established the city as the first permanent European settlement in the continental United States, while Britain sought to expand its territory in North America. The strategic location of St. Augustine made it a focal point during various conflicts, including the Anglo-Spanish War and the American Revolutionary War, as both nations aimed to control the region for its military and economic advantages.
