Colombia was founded during the Spanish colonization of the Americas in the early 16th century. The territory was first explored by Spanish conquistadors, with Rodrigo de Bastidas being one of the first to navigate its coast in 1500. The establishment of Santa Marta in 1525 marked the first permanent settlement, followed by the founding of Bogotá in 1538 by Gonzalo Jiménez de Quesada. Colombia eventually became part of the Viceroyalty of New Granada, which included modern-day Venezuela, Ecuador, and Panama, before gaining independence in the early 19th century.
