Georgia has so many great crops like cotton, indigo, tobacco, and even rice which are cash crops. People can learn to farm and most of the population own small farms. Georgia and the Native Americans trade for or work in various trades as shoemakers, brickmakers, tailors, blacksmiths, silversmiths, and even pottery makers which gives many job opportunities.

Many European nations were competing for land in North America and both Spain and England claimed the land we know today as Georgia! King George deemed Georgia as a place to escape from your past and troubles. It is a place of refugee and welcomes all. We also helped the southern colonies from Spanish invasions and fought bravely.

The citizens in the colony are really good people. Some settlers are missionaries, and they preach in the name of Christianity. Also, you don't have to work when you come here. Most of the people here are farmers so you can get fresh fruit and food with quick access. The English church was also the state church after Georgia became a royal colony, but religious freedom was granted to all Protestants.

Here farmers started self-sufficient farms instead of large plantations. Along the coast were feral swamps where plantations grew rice and indigo, a plant used to make blue dry. The far western part of the colony called the backcountry is mountainous and forested. There are a lot of mountains and a lot of rivers.

King George the second founded Georgia in his own name in 1732. He gave business rights to 8 Lord Proprietors and then later to the 21 trustees. They then gave the job of setting up the colony to James Edward Oglethorpe, an idealistic political activist of his own time! James pledged to help resettle Britain's poor and based Georgia on three motives: philanthropic, commercial, and military.

Georgia is a great place to wipe the slate clean and have a new chance at life. When debtors come here, they are given a chance to work and come here as a place of refuge. In regards to slavery, it is merely just a way to practice hard work and gives people an opportunity. It also helps us produce abundant crops that allow us to get lots of money which overall benefits the rest of the colonies.

As well as having a place for debtors from English prisons, foreigners could find a safe place to live. Many settlers went to Georgia to get away from religious persecution. This means the colony had a tradition of religious freedom and allows anybody to have their own beliefs or even none at all.
