Sir Walter Raleigh founded the first British colony in the Americas, known as Roanoke Island, in 1585. This attempt at colonization was part of England's efforts to establish a presence in the New World, but the colony ultimately disappeared and became known as the "Lost Colony." Raleigh's venture marked a significant moment in British colonial history, despite its failure.
