'''-- CORRECTION --'''
The first European settlement in what is now the United States was not near Pensacola.
In 1526, more than three decades before the de Luna expedition, another Spanish explorer named Lucas Vasquez de Ayllon with an expedition of
three ships carrying 600 settlers and 100 horses, established a settlement on the coast of what is present-day Georgia or South Carolina.
This settlement was called San Miguel de Gauldape.
''"San Miguel de Gualdape was the first European settlement inside what is now United States territory, founded by Spaniard Lucas Vázquez de Ayllón in 1526"''
