St. Augustine, The First Permanent European Settlement The first Europeans to establish colonies in North America were the Spanish. In 1526 a Spaniard called Lucas Vasquez de Allyon attempted to found a colony in Carolina. (He also brought the first black slaves to North America). However the attempt failed. Many Spaniards died of disease and the survivors abandoned the colony.

The first English attempt to colonize North America was made by a man named Sir Humphrey Gilbert.
