The first Europeans to settle in St. Augustine, Florida were the Spanish. St. Augustine, Florida was founded in 1565 by Spanish admiral Pedro Menéndez de Avilés. The admiral named it St. Augustine because his ships bearing settlers, soldiers, and supplies from Spain first sighted land on August 28th, the feast day of Saint Augustine.
St. Augustine built the first permanent, or long-lasting, European settlement in what is now the United States.

No, Saint Augustine in Florida is not the oldest city in the world. The title of oldest continuously inhabited city is often attributed to cities like Damascus, Jericho, and Aleppo, which have a longer history of human habitation. Saint Augustine, founded in 1565, is the oldest continuously inhabited European-established settlement in the United States.
