▶ In this video, I explore the fascinating history of East and West Florida, which existed from 1763 to 1821. Initially part of Spanish Florida, the territory was split by the British into East and West Florida after the Seven Years' War. West Florida included the panhandle and parts of present-day Louisiana, Mississippi, and Alabama, while East Florida comprised the peninsula. The division persisted even after Spain regained control post-American Revolution. However, ongoing border disputes with the U.S., combined with Spain's inability to manage the territory effectively, led to the Adams-Onís Treaty in 1819, where Spain ceded both Floridas to the U.S. The U.S. merged them into the Florida Territory in 1822, eventually becoming the state of Florida in 1845. This video delves into the historical context, the territorial disputes, and the factors leading to the unification of Florida. Should Florida stay the same, should it be split again, or should its panhandle join Alabama?
