How did Georgia transition from being ruled by James oglethorpe and the trustee's into a royal colony governed by three royal governors?

Georgia transitioned from a trustee-led colony to a royal colony in 1752 due to various challenges, including economic difficulties and conflicts with Native Americans. The trustees, who initially governed the colony under James Oglethorpe, faced pressure to relax restrictions on land ownership and slavery, which they resisted. As the colony struggled to thrive, the British government decided to take control, establishing Georgia as a royal colony governed by a series of appointed royal governors. This change aimed to stabilize the colony and promote economic growth through the introduction of rice and indigo cultivation.
