Vive la Floride française

In 1565 Pedro Menendez de Aviles decides to attack Fort Caroline a week later then in OTL. His ships are battered along the coast by a horrible hurricane. He unfortuantley land only a single mile from Fort Caroline. He is captured by the French Hugenots after being hurt so badly that he can give no fight. The Hugenots kill the Spanish troops in retaliation for crimes against Hugenots in Europe.

The Spanish Crown is vengeful for French blood. They send the best of their Admirals to Florida to destroy the French colony. But the Admiral was sent almost a year later whil gathering up troops for the fight. The ships were almost shoulder to shoulder. When a hurricane crashed the ship into Cuba nearly all of the soldiers died and the Admiral died of brain trauma later.

Now furious with France the Spanish sent another ship to Florida. But the ship's crew mutinied against the Admiral and sent the ship to South America where the crew escaped Spanish authorities.

The Spanish Crown now was realising that the missions to Florida were all failing, they decided to abandon Florida to the French for now, but they whould be back.
