History Question: What is the oldest permanent colonial settlement in the US?

[Suu]

This came up in school, and I was entirely not surprised that regional history textbooks teach different things. One of the above answers is correct, but I am not going to flip out at people who get it wrong, because even my boyfriend did.

Please do not debate what the Europeans did to the natives, or even how the natives technically colonized here first. That's not what I'm asking. I would like to know just out of an experiment of sorts to see how some regions of the country really do teach this.

Oh, and try not to look it up, either. :P

Did not cheat.

[Nephew Twiddleton]

I voted. Now I'm going to look it up.

[Nephew Twiddleton]

Nope. I was on the right track though.

You can tell I didn't cheat because I was wrong.

[Bebek Sincap Ratatosk]

Huh, I was wrong too!

I Guessed

[Faust]

I guessed, but I also didn't look it up so I am going to assume I was right until violently persuaded otherwise.

[Cainad (dec.)]

I guessed and voted, but then cheated. And by cheated I mean I went on FB and was informed of the truth against my will.

[Bu🤠ns]

Wow -- I stand amazed at and ashamed of myself.

[LMNO]

I saw this on your FB feed earlier, so I know.  But I didn't before seeing the post.

I was taught that it's St. Augustine.

[Pope Pixie Pickle]

I got it wrong.
