Georgia was founded for two reasons. First, the English feared that Spain was about to expand its Florida colony northward. An English colony south of Carolina would keep the Spanish bottled up in Florida. Second, a group of wealthy Englishmen led by James Oglethorpe wanted a colony where there would be protection for English debtors. Under English laws, the government could imprison debtors until the paid what the owed.
They wanted to get away from the British. They did not like their rule, they did not want to speak english, and they did not agree with Great Britian's doing away with enslavement.
that protected debtors

Because they wanted to grow crops and do farming. English leaders wanted to more space and make the colony the grow.
They were a colony because they came and built New Amsterdam well before the English came to Plymouth. The English didn't want to control them, but wanted the location. New Amsterdam had a good natural port and good resources and THAT is what they were after from the Dutch.
Sir George Calvert established the colony of Maryland in 1634 mainly for religious reasons. He wanted this colony to be for English Catholics, and he also wanted to demonstrate that Catholics and Protestants could co-exist in peace.
Colony
The Dutch trading company wanted to expand so they just settled in the Area of present day New York. Also, the immigrants from England who had settled in the dutch countries wanted to move to America because they believed that they were losing their English heritage by staying in a place that, while it offered religious freedom, still commonly used dutch practices. SO they established the colony of New York in an attempt to have a persecution-free English value possesing colony.
