While it had no clearly defined boundaries, Spain's claim to this vast area was based on several wide-ranging expeditions mounted during the 16th century and the establishment of various outposts (presidios and missions). However, Spain never exercised real control over La Florida much beyond several settlements and forts which were predominantly located in the peninsula or coastline. The new hinterland settlements of the 17th century were established besides navegable rivers.

abstract
  • While it had no clearly defined boundaries, Spain's claim to this vast area was based on several wide-ranging expeditions mounted during the 16th century and the establishment of various outposts (presidios and missions). However, Spain never exercised real control over La Florida much beyond several settlements and forts which were predominantly located in the peninsula or coastline. The new hinterland settlements of the 17th century were established besides navegable rivers. The Treaty of Madrid (1670) established the limits of British Virginia and Spanish Florida at latitude 32° 30″. Later agreements, based on de facto occupation, established limits around the watersheds of the Pee Dee and Fear rivers. Spain also expanded its claims to the north of the Muscogui province.
