The first two European countries to explore Texas were Spain and France. Spanish explorers, such as Alonso Álvarez de Pineda in 1519, mapped the Texas coastline, while French explorers, including René-Robert Cavelier, Sieur de La Salle, attempted to establish settlements in the late 17th century. Their explorations laid the groundwork for future European colonization and interaction with Indigenous peoples in the region.
