Unxweme olungalibalekiyo ngumgca wethegi eMexico Beach, eFlorida Namhlanje akusekho lwandle lwaseMexico ngokwengxelo yemeko-bume ye-CNN ngale ntsasa. IMexico Beach sisixeko esiseBay County, eFlorida, eMelika. Abemi be-1,072 kubalo luka-2010. Inxalenye yePanama City-Lynn Haven. Namhlanje iRhuluneli yaseFlorida u-Rick Scott uthi i-Florida National Guard ingene e-Mexico Beach kwaye yafumana abantu abangama-20 abasindayo kwi-Hurricane Michael.
Imeko kwisiXeko saseMexico, eFlorida ibuhlungu emva kokuba ibethe ngokuthe ngqo ngemimoya yeekhilomitha ezili-150 xa iNkanyamba uMichael yabetha le dolophu incinci. Ngokwabafundi be-eTN, iilwandle zilungile, idolophu itshatyalalisiwe, kodwa le dolophu incinci kakhulu yolwandle isetyenziswa njengomzekelo kuninzi losasazo xa bejonga intshabalalo. Ixesha liya kubonisa ukuba ubanzi bungakanani ngokwenene umonakalo kwiidolophu zonxweme zaseFlorida.
Ngokuya kwiwebhusayithi zokhenketho, ngokungafaniyo neendawo ezisemazantsi ukuya emazantsi, iMexico Beach inamava amafutshane, notshintsho olufihlakeleyo lwexesha. Ihlobo lihlaziyile kwaye liyamangalisa kwaye ubusika buzolile kwaye bukhululekile, kodwa uninzi lwabantu balapha luthanda intwasahlobo kunye nokwindla.
Le dolophu incinci inembali emangalisayo ethunyelwe kwiwebhusayithi yayo:
Ngexesha "lokufumanisa" kwaseYurophu, amaIndiya angama-Apalachee ahlala kule ndawo namhlanje iyiLwandle lwaseMexico. Umoyisi waseSpain uPánfilo de Narváez wakhokelela kuhambo oluya kule ndawo ngehlobo lowe-1528 kwaye wahlaselwa ligorha eliphezulu lamajoni ase-Apalachee. Njengoko amaSpanish arhoxa ecaleni kwemilambo iWakulla kunye neSt. Marks, iiApalachee zahlasela zaza zanyanzela abo boyisileyo ukuba baye kwiGulf of Mexico. Apho, belambile kwaye besitya amahashe abo, bakhawulezisa bakha iinqanawa kwaye bahamba ngenqanawa besiya eNew Spain (Mexico).
AbaseSpain babeza kubuya ngo-1539 ngokuhamba kwamajoni angama-550 ekhokelwa nguHernando de Soto. Olu hambo lusondele eMexico Beach namhlanje kwiTallahassee. I-Tallahassee yayiza kuba likomkhulu leSpanish Florida kwaye ihlale njalo de ithengiselwe eNgilane ngokutshintshisela ulawulo lweHavana, eCuba. I-Apalachee, abemi bayo bancitshiswa kukungqubana neSpanish kunye nokuchaphazeleka kwizifo ababengenako ukuzikhusela kuzo, bapheliswa.
Ngenxa yeMfazwe Yeminyaka Esixhenxe kunye neFrance neSpain, i-Great Britain yazifumana inendawo yonke yaseFrance esempuma yoMlambo iMississippi, kunye nomhlaba oxhaswe liqabane laseFrance iSpain. Ukufumana iFlorida kunzima kakhulu ukuyilawula njengeziko elinye, iBritane yahlulahlulwe yangamacandelo amabini ahlukeneyo: eMpuma naseNtshona yeFlorida.
I-Mexico Beach yawela kummandla we-West Florida, owawubumba indawo eyaziwa ngokuba yi "Panhandle." Intsimi yayiza kuphinda iphikiswe ngexesha leMfazwe yaseMelika yoQhushululu kwaye, ngokunqoba kweMelika amaBritane, ilifa labuyela eSpain njengoko likhuselwe yiSivumelwano saseParis ngo-1783.
Ummandla kunye noRhulumente
AbaseSpain baqhubeka nomsebenzi waseBritane wokulawula loo ndawo njengeMpuma kunye neNtshona yeFlorida, kodwa kungekudala babandakanyeka kwimpikiswano yomda ne-United States. Ukungavisisani phakathi kwabahlali baseSpain nabaseMelika, kunye nemfazwe phakathi kwamazwe kunye namaNdiya aseSeminole, ekugqibeleni akhokelela eFlorida ekuthengisweni eUnited States ngokutshintshiselana nokwamkelwa kwamabango aseSpain eTexas.
EMpuma naseNtshona Florida kwahlanganiswa kwaye iFlorida yaba yintsimi yase-US ngo-1822, kunye neTallahassee njengekomkhulu layo. Ngo-1845, iFlorida yaba lilizwe lama-27.
Indawo ebandakanya ulwandle lwaseMexico iya kubona uphuhliso oluncinci kule minyaka ingama-60 izayo. Umkhosi wamanzi waseMelika wavimba iGulf Coast ngexesha leMfazwe yamakhaya, ngelixa uMntla wahlasela imisebenzi ebalulekileyo yetyuwa ekufuphi kwindawo ekuyiPanama City ngoku, kwaye kwaliwa iimfazwe ezimbalwa kuloo ndawo. Iimbaleki ezibalekiweyo zazithubelezisa umqhaphu ngaphandle, kunye nezinto ezibalulekileyo zemfazwe kunye nemali, kwindawo ephantsi kobusuku bobusuku.
KweMfazwe Yehlabathi II
Imfazwe neJamani yafika kunxweme lwaseMexico Beach ngehlobo lowe-1942. NgoJuni waloo nyaka, inqanawa ye-oyile yaseBritani i-Empire Mica yayisuka eBaytown, eTexas, ithwele ioyile isiya kwi-East Coast. Ukuthintela oomatiloshe baseJamani, iinqanawa ezingagadwanga zayalelwa ukuba zihambe ngenqanawa emini kwaye zilale phantsi kwizibuko elikufutshane ebusuku. EPort St. Joe, abasebenzi base-Empire Mica bafunda ukuba uyilo lwenqanawa lwabo lwalulukhulu kakhulu ukuba bangenza kwaye baqhubeka ebusuku. Ioyile engaxhobanga kwaye engagcinwanga, eyenziwe yinyanga egcwele isibhakabhaka esicwengileyo, yayiyeyona nto yayijolise kuyo nakubasebenzi be-U-boat. Inqanawa yatshiswa ngomlilo yaza yatshona ngo-1: 00 ekuseni nge-29 kaJuni, belahlekelwa ngabasebenzi abangama-33. Ngexesha lentwasahlobo nehlobo lowe-1942, i-U-boats zaseJamani zasebenza zaza zangcwatywa kwiGulf of Mexico, zatshona iinqanawa eziManyeneyo ezisuka eTexas zisiya eFlorida. Ekupheleni kwemfazwe, iJamani yayithumele iinqanawa ezingama-56 emazantsi eGulf.
Olunye uqhekeko lwaphawuleka lwenzeka ngo-1942, ngaphantsi kweemayile ezine kunxweme lwaseMexico Beach. Inqanawa yokuhambisa iVamar ekuqaleni yayakhiwe njengesikhephe sokujikeleza i-Admiralty yase-Bhritane kwaye kamva yangena kwindawo ebonakalayo njengelungu leenqanawa zokuhamba ze-Admiral Byrd's Antarctic. NgeMfazwe yesibini (II) yeHlabathi, inqanawe — eyayidume ngokugcina ulwandle ngendlela engeyiyo - yayiwohloke. Zisindwa ngumthwalo kwaye zinzima kakhulu, inqanawe esuka ePort St. Joe ithwele amaplanga awayesiya eCuba. Kungekudala emva kokucoca umjelo, inqanawa yazika phantsi kweemeko ezirhanisayo. Abasebenzi babuya bekhuselekile elunxwemeni phakathi kwamahemuhemu okonzakala ngexesha lemfazwe kunye nezityholo zokuzama ukuntywila inqanawa ngenzame yokuzivalela ukungena kwizibuko. Isizathu sokuntywila asikaze simiselwe kwaye isiganeko sihlala sigqunyiwe.
Emva kweMfazwe
Iziganeko ezibini zakhuthaza "ukufunyanwa" kunye nokuphuhliswa kweLwandle lwaseMexico, njengoko kunjalo nanamhlanje: Ukugqitywa koHola wendlela omkhulu nge-98 kunye nolwakhiwo lweTyndall Field ngo-1930. njengokuba babedlula kwisiseko soqeqesho xa besiya emfazweni. Ngomnyaka we-1941, iqela loosomashishini balapha kubandakanya uGordon Parker, WT McGowan, kunye noJW Wainright bathenga iihektare ezili-1946 zepropathi engaselunxwemeni kwaye baqala uphuhliso.
I-Mexico Beach yakhula ngokukhawuleza kodwa ngokukhawuleza ngo-1950s no-60s. Ngo-1955, i-Mexico Beach Canal yagqitywa, ukubonelela abahamba ngeenqanawa ngokukhawuleza, ngokulula nangokukhuselekileyo ukufikelela kwiGulf. Ngo-1967, idolophu yafakwa ngokusemthethweni njengesiXeko saseMexico.
UMexico Beach wakhawuleza waziwa ngokuloba kwayo kwezemidlalo. Ukuloba bekukho, kwaye kuhlala kunjalo, yenye yezona ndawo zitsala umzi. Umbutho wase-Mexico Beach Artificial Reef, osebenza ngokusondeleyo neKhomishini yaseFlorida yeNtlanzi kunye neZilwanyana zasendle kunye ne-United States Army Corps yeenjineli, useke ngaphezulu kwe-1,000 XNUMX yolwandle kufikelela lula elunxwemeni. Le nkqubo ibe yimpumelelo enkulu, itsala iindidi ezingenakubalwa zamanani kunye neentlanzi kunye nobunye ubomi baselwandle eMexico Beach nokwenza ukuba indawo ibe yindawo ekhethwayo yomlobi wezemidlalo.
namhlanje
Ngokuchaseneyo noluntu olumelwane kunye ne-Gulf Coast, iMexico Beach ikhangeleka kakhulu namhlanje njengoko yayisenza kumashumi eminyaka eyadlulayo. Uphuhliso lwezorhwebo luthintelwe kwaye luqulathwe. Ngaphezulu kweemayile zonxweme kukhuselwe kuphuhliso, kubonelela ngemibono engaphazanyiswanga yolwandle oluhle olunentlabathi emhlophe kunye namanzi eemerald emerald. Amashishini aphantse abe ngabanini bamaziko "omama kunye nabapapa". I-Mexico Beach yimbali yokuphumelela yokulondolozwa.
Ngelixa iSixeko sase-Mexico Beach namhlanje sinabemi aba-1,000 XNUMX nje kuphela, izizukulwana zabakhenkethi ezivela kwihlabathi liphela ziye zafumanisa le dolophu iselunxwemeni ethe cwaka, inyanisekileyo kunye nosapho. Uninzi lwabakhenkethi babuya unyaka nonyaka kuhambo lwabo lokuya kwiisanti ezimhlophe zeGulf Coast.
Siqinisekile ukuba ooyise abasungula kunye nosapho oluphayona olwenze iMexico Beach ukuba ibe yindawo ekuyo namhlanje bangazingca ngeziphumo eziqhubekayo zemizamo yabo kunye neenkumbulo ezininzi ezonwabisayo ezenziwe apha.
