Synopsis

More than one hundred years before the Pilgrims landed on Plymouth Rock, Spanish adventurers explored the peninsula of Florida. They founded St. Augustine and fiercely protected their claims to this "flowery land." But the English and then Americans sent in more settlers, and Spain was forced to cede Florida to the United States in 1819. In 1845, Florida became the twenty-seventh state.
