12. Put the Growth of New spain in the correct order based on the events that led to the growth of New Spain
The Spanish decided they needed more forts to protect New Spain from the French and other Europeans. In 1564 the Spanish built St. Augustine, the first town built by Europeans in the present-day US.
Spanish missions, cities, settlements and plantations grew in New Spain, other European countries became very interested in beginning their own settlements in North America. For examples, the French tried to settle along the Northern coast of what is now Florida in the early 1560w. The Spanish saw this as a threat and destroyed the colony in After losing their small colony, the French began to make claims in what is now Canada
