James Oglethorpe, the founder of Georgia, banned slavery and the sale of rum in the colony. He aimed to create a society of small farmers and promote a sense of equality among settlers. Oglethorpe believed that the presence of slavery would lead to social and economic issues, undermining the colony's intended purpose as a refuge for the poor and indebted. These bans were later lifted, leading to significant changes in the colony's development.
