huguenot assault on st augustine succeeds in 1565. establishment of french florida

avile's fleet is defeated and ribault's counterattack (assisted by dissaffected timucua) on st augustine succeeds and takes the spanish settlement. france sends more settlers/soldiers to solidify their hold on florida......spain protests but after another naval disaster off cuba, is forced to cede the peninsula......would new france be radically different if this turn of events had occured? would there be a french and indian war? a partially french USA?



feel free to to discuss!
