Jump to: navigation, search

: Main article: Mobile, Alabama

A detail of Jean Baptiste Bourguignon d'Anville's 1732 map of Louisiana showing Mobile Bay, the Mobile colony, and surrounding Native American settlements.

The history of Mobile, Alabama differs significantly from the other British colonies, because Mobile began as the first capital of colonial French Louisiana (part of New France). Mobile remained a colony for France until 1763, when Britain took control of the colony. Spain captured the colony during the American Revolutionary War and retained control for the next thirty years. Mobile first became a part of the United States of America in 1813 when it was captured by American forces, The city left the United States with the state of Alabama in 1861 to become a part of the Confederate States of America and then reverted back to the United States in 1865 at the close of the American Civil War.[1]
