There followed period of hos
tility between the English col
onists In the Carolinas and the
Spanish In Florida. BY the trea-
ty Of 1853 Spain ceded Florida
to England in exchange for Ha-
vana, which England had cap
tured few years previous. 1t
remained an English colony un-
til the last years Of the Revolu-
ton when Spain recaptured 1t.
There were two provinces,
East and West Florida. AS the
Spanish ruled Florida with
very loose form OF government,
this region became the refuge of
pirates, smugglers and lawless
characters. Such an element to-
gether with the unruly Seminole
Indians naturally caused great
deal of trouble. To overcome
this, President Monroe pur-
chased Florida from Spain in
1919 for S5,000,0O0 or about
eleven cents an acre. 1t was
organized into a territory and
in 1916 was admitted to the I'm
ION.
Florida is sometimes called
the Everglade State on account
of the vast swamp-land in its
southern part. 1t is also known
1 as the Peninsula State and is the
southernmost State of the Union.
Its area is 5S,660 square miles.
