The Charter of 1732 was created by the trustees. The purpose of the charter was to keep the colony of Georgia under control because it was a social experiment. The charter's most important rules are that there were no catholics allowed in Georgia. It also did not allow blacks in because they believed it would start slavery and women weren't allowed to own land. Some other ones were there had to be a common council, no liquor or liquor dealers (alcohol), the colonists must grow mulberry trees because silk worms ate their leaves and England wanted to make silk, no lawyers because they wanted the colonists to settle their problems one on one instead of in court, and a land limit of 500 acres.

Granted to James Oglethorpe and several of his friends to organize a colony south of the Carolina's. The colony would be named Georgia, and it was granted by King George II, of England, in 1732.
Oglethorpe and his associates planned to control the colony for 21 years, at which point it would automatically become a royal colony. The name Georgia, was in honor of the king.
