It been said that during its long history Florida has flown the flags of five nations. One of those nations was Spain, and it's flag actually flew over Florida twice. The first Spanish period (1565-1763) and the Second Spanish Period (1783-1821). The two Spanish periods were broken up by a brief 20 year span when Florida was under British rule while Florida's neighbors, the 13 original colonies, were declaring their independence from the King.  In this episode, we will take a look at what was happening in Florida during it's time as a Spanish territory, and how Spain's claim to the sunshine state eventually came to an end.
