The second colony, often referring to the Roanoke Colony established in 1587, failed primarily due to a combination of factors including lack of supplies, poor leadership, and conflicts with Indigenous peoples. After Governor John White returned to England for supplies, he was delayed by the Spanish Armada and could not return for three years. When he finally returned, he found the colony deserted, with little evidence of what had happened to the settlers. The harsh conditions, isolation, and inadequate planning ultimately led to its failure.
