Wow French Protestants in Fla would of drove the Most Catholic Spanish king nuts. It also would been seen as a French threat to the trade routes to Mexico and Panama. Considering Spain and France spent most of the 1500s fighting each other over Iraly, I guess there would of been a lot passing the FLA colony back and forth between Spain and France

Huguenots did establish a French Protestant colony on the coast of South Carolina in the 1600s. I know because I am descended from them.
