Great Britain wanted to settle Georgia for defense. It tried to acquire it so that it could use it as a place for its military to monitor its southern colonies.
The Georgia colony served as a buffer between the English colonies and the Spanish ones in Florida and southward. The English also used them to, more or less, claim the land that is now Georgia before the Spanish did.
The English government wanted to use Georgia as an outpost against the Spanish in Florida and the French in Louisiana.
