The British Parliament
Georgia had a diverse collection of European settlers in the original Georgia colony. Initially, people from the other American colonies were barred from living in Georgia. Settlers were either charity settlers, who had been financed by the colony's trustees or adventures who paid their own way and received the best land grants. Initially, the colony was to focus on the growth of silk fiber. Settlers were required to plant a set number of Mulberry trees. Slavery was also prohibited. But after the silk industry floundered and the slavery ban was found to be restrictive to development, those restrictions disappeared.
James Oglethorpe had the idea of bringing over debtors, people who where in prison for owing money, to settle in Georgia colony.

Established in 1733, Savannah was the city the first settlers of Georgia built. The city is located in Chatham County.
Georgia served as the British Penal colony but settlers in the Carolinas were becoming anxious about them being so close and because Georgia had great farm land so the penal colony did not last long before it was moved to Australia, an island penal colony.
