Walter Raleigh was active as an explorer primarily during the late 16th century, with significant expeditions occurring between the 1580s and 1618. His most notable endeavors include the attempts to establish a colony in North America, particularly the Roanoke Colony in 1585. Although his exploration activities were concentrated in this period, his influence and contributions to exploration continued until his execution in 1618.
If you count Roanoke as the first colony, then, it would be Jamestown. If you count Jamestown as the first, then it would be Plymouth.
The English explorer who unsuccessfully attempted to establish a colony in 1585 was Sir Walter Raleigh. He led an expedition to Roanoke Island, which is located off the coast of present-day North Carolina. The colony faced numerous challenges, including food shortages and conflicts with Indigenous peoples, ultimately leading to its abandonment. This venture is often referred to as the "Lost Colony" due to the mysterious fate of its settlers.
Sir Walter Raleigh.
Colony at Roanoke was attempted by Sir Walter Raleigh, an English explorer. Two attempts were made to establish the colony in 1585 and 1587, both of which ultimately failed.
In Hispaniola, Vasco Núñez de Balboa unsuccessfully attempted to establish a settlement and find gold. He faced challenges from local indigenous populations and the Spanish authorities, which ultimately led to his departure from the island. Despite his ambitions, he was unable to secure the resources and support necessary to establish a successful colony there. Balboa's later expeditions would eventually lead him to the discovery of the Pacific Ocean.
