I just learned that Russia colonized California and used to think they can own North America (fighting Spain for it).
What are some other less famous colonization efforts?

There is a difference between claiming authority over a region, and actually establishing and maintaining permanent large-scale settlements. Russia did the former rather than the latter.

Again, actually read what I have said. Building a small wooden fort isn't enough to claim a whole region. Establishing and maintaining permanent large-scale settlements is.
