Florida was the first state to be discovered in 1512 by Ponce de Leon from Spain. Although it was of course not a state yet when it was discovered. Dont get confused with Jamestown Virginia which was the first to become an English colony but that wasnt until the 1600s when it was discovered.

Well, people kind of have different opinions about it...no... not opinions.

But people had different.... answers.

I personally think that Virginia was the first state to be discovered because when Christopher Columbus discovered the United States of America, he thought he was in the Indies, so he called the people there, Indians.

And GUESS wha t that state was???

VIRGINIA!!!
