In addition, Spain also had a claim to land around Mobile, making it a popular tourist destination. In the early 1700s, Alabama became a part of the United States, and the first white settlers arrived there in 1610.The state was first settled by the Creek Indians. In the 1500s, European explorers came to Alabama. The French and the English settled in Alabama after the 1763 Battle of Mobile. The Spanish held a claim to the land around Mobile, but after that, the British and French made their way to the southern coast. Although slavery still prevailed throughout the south, Alabama became a central point in the American Civil Rights Movement, with the Montgomery Bus Boycott, a famous movement that galvanized Americans to fight for equal rights.
