The area was home to several historic American Indian tribes, including the Muskogean-speaking Creek and Choctaw. These tribes had lived on the lands for many centuries and established numerous settlements. These two tribes were part of the Southeast's Five Civilized Tribes. They adopted some European-American cultural practices. Many of their members worked closely with traders and settlers who arrived in the region in the early 19th century. These nations were forced to cede most of their lands to America and to move in the 1830s into Indian Territory west of the Mississippi River.
Escambia County was established and organized after the American Civil War on December 10, 1868, during the Reconstruction era. It was formed by parts of Conecuh and Baldwin counties to the north and west, respectively. It was part of the coastal plain. It was a largely agricultural area until the 20th century.
Due to seasonal hurricanes, heavy winds and rains can affect the county. The county was declared a disaster zone in September 1979 due to Hurricane Frederic's damage. Due to Hurricane Ivan's damage, it was again declared a disaster zone in September 2004.
The 20th century saw the Poarch Band of Creek Indians organize to be recognized as a tribe and establish a government with a written constitution. The federal government took some of its lands into trust as part of federal recognition. It is the only tribe that has been federally recognized in the state. They have built three gaming resorts in the state since the 20th century to generate revenue for tribal welfare and health.
Alabama also recognized nine tribes that are generally descendants of Choctaw and Creek Native Americans who lived in Alabama historically.
