Welcome to the Florida History Project — a dedicated initiative committed to uncovering, preserving, and sharing the rich, complex, and often untold stories of Florida’s past. From its earliest settlements to its modern evolution, Florida's history is layered with indigenous cultures, colonial struggles, waves of immigration, economic booms, environmental transformations, and moments of controversy and triumph.

 

Our mission is to bring these stories to life through engaging articles, original research, local narratives, and archival exploration. We focus not just on the well-known chapters of Florida’s history, but also on the hidden corners — the forgotten towns, unsung heroes, political dramas, environmental shifts, and cultural milestones that have shaped the Sunshine State.

 

Whether you're a curious local, a student, a history enthusiast, or someone just beginning to explore Florida’s fascinating past, the Florida History Project is your place to learn, question, and discover the forces that made Florida what it is today.
