The eight lord proprietors controlled the colony of Carolina, which was initially divided into North and South Carolina. They were granted the land by King Charles II of England in the 17th century. The proprietors aimed to develop the colony for economic gain and established a system of governance based on their interests. Over time, the colony's growth and internal conflicts led to its eventual split into two separate colonies.
