      @@LG-bs1rs yes, technically, the second Seminole war is still ongoing. Because the Seminole never surrender, the war is still on and is the longest running war in history. The US government got tired of losing to them and just stopped attacking them,
      I also live in Florida and as a man, I hate the meme about Florida man. Not every man in Florida is nuts. The truth is that the Florida government is more willing to release these stories, whereas other states keep their police cases secret. This is why it seems like Florida is filled with more kooks than other states.

    A few mistakes here. First, Florida was not ceded to the United States, it was sold. Second, the Seminoles in the Everglades were never removed, they were the only Native American group to never surrender to the US government, and are still there to this day. Third, Disney is not the largest employer in the state, Publix is.

    Fun Fact: In the navy, every state had a ship named for them. In our case, we had the USS Florida, a dreadnought battleship commissioned in 1911. Her design, while an improvement on the previous Delaware class of dreadnought battleships, was not succeeded in full potential until the invention of the New York class, which introduced 14-inch naval guns to the equation, compared to Florida's 12-inch barrels.
    She saw service at Veracruz in the aftermath of the Tampico Incident of 1914, sending her marines ashore. After this, she saw service in WWI, operating with the British Grand Fleet at Scapa Flow. She later escorted convoys with the New York class battleship Texas, and would later see service in the Azores with her sister Utah.
    Under the terms of the London Naval Treaty of 1930, which limited the amount of ships wider world powers could have, she was scrapped after a twenty year long service life.
    Her bell, (considered the heart or soul of a ship,) was preserved, and can still be seen at the Museum of Florida History in Tallahassee.

      ​@thomasnelson6161 Well if all we know about Florida's rich history we learned from our American History books we only get part of the history.
      The only reason the British got there hands on Florida is because tha Spanish King at the time made a deal with the British Monarchs at the time. The deal was leave Havana's harbors and leave Cuba alone, and the Spanish would turn over Florida to England , snd so the English left Cuba and not to return.and The English would take Florida instead. Cuba was Spain's Main seaport and shipyards in the American Atlantic side at the time, but the British had there eyes on the British colonies to the North, and didn't want a full scale war with Spain. Non the less Spain established Naval blockades to hinder supplies to the British during the American Revolution and also gold and silver flowing out of Cuba to help the American fight the British. After the Revolution the British left the United States and Spain regained Florida because it had already had been a Spanish Colony since the early 1500's. Many books say it was sold to the US.

Where a spring flows during that time the spring was a life source of fresh water. Ship builders built the church. Inside the church looking up you can see that it's a ship turned upside down. The king and Queen gave that church a silver cross. Which is still there today. Today,At times the king and Queen return to the church to view the cross and receive blessings.

    While fleeing African Americans definitely contributed somewhat to the low population, to list it as the reason Florida was so underpopulated is just wrong. Florida was sparsely populated before their exodus, and the number of African Americans leaving was not substantial enough to really account for major population change.
    The reason Florida has few people in it was because it used to be very difficult and unpleasant to live there (and still is to a smaller extent). It's mostly swampland, very hot and muggy, with water being a major issue (too much dirty water that makes it hard to navigate and build, but not enough drinkable water).
    It was not until fairly recent decades that Florida became more populated, largely due to new technologies and infrastructure to get around the swampland, and financed by a major tourist boom

    I think that the different time zone in the Florida Panhandle has a lot to do with things here. I've always thought that the Florida Panhandle feels like a completely different state compared to the rest of Florida. Being in the Central Time Zone doesn't give the Florida Panhandle the East Coast vibe that you feel in the rest of Florida. Jacksonville is obviously a major exception to the idea of a low population in North Florida.
