The Spanish referred to the area that is now Georgia as "La Florida," which encompassed a much larger territory than the present-day state of Florida. They explored this region during the 16th century, seeking to establish missions and settlements. The Spanish aimed to convert Indigenous peoples to Christianity and expand their colonial influence in North America. Over time, the area became a point of contention among European powers, leading to its eventual incorporation into British colonial territory.
