After the board of trustees returned Georgia to royal control in 1752, the colony experienced increased stability and growth. The royal government implemented stronger oversight and resources, leading to the expansion of agriculture and trade. This transition also allowed for more direct governance, which helped to address conflicts with Native American tribes and improve relations. However, the shift also meant the loss of some of the original trustees' ideals, such as the prohibition of slavery, which was ultimately lifted.
The Georgia trustees were a group of individuals appointed in the early 18th century to oversee the establishment and governance of the colony of Georgia. Founded in 1732 by James Oglethorpe and others, the trustees aimed to create a refuge for the poor, particularly those in debtors' prisons, and to promote social reform. They governed the colony for 21 years, implementing policies such as prohibitions on slavery and land ownership limits, before relinquishing control to the British Crown in 1752.
In 1752, Georgia transitioned from a proprietary colony to a royal colony. This change came after the trustees, who had governed Georgia since its founding in 1732, decided to relinquish control due to various pressures and challenges, including conflicts with the colonists over land and trade. As a royal colony, Georgia was directly governed by the British Crown, which allowed for greater oversight and control over its development and governance.

Royal, although it didn't actually come under direct control of the Crown until 1752, 20 years after its charter was granted to a board of Trustees. During those 20 years the colony was founded (1733) and supervised on-site by James Oglethorpe, one of the Trustees.
Georgia was governed by a trustee system for its first 20 years after its founding in 1732. The Trustees for Establishing the Colony of Georgia, led by James Oglethorpe, managed the colony with the intent of providing a place for debtors and the poor. This governance lasted until 1752, when the colony transitioned to a royal colony under the control of the British crown.

Oglethorpe imagined a province populated by "sturdy farmers" who could guard the border; because of this, the colony's charter prohibited slavery. The ban on slavery was lifted by 1751 and the colony became a royal colony by 1752.

The colony of Georgia was basically a prison colony. It was a place were debtors worked to begin a new life. Colonial Georgia was founded by James Oglethorpe and served only to preserve rigid control over the debt-prisoners and to ensure that a military presence existed to buffer the Spanish in Florida at the time. Colonial Georgia's government was similar to all other colonial governments at the time, with specific attention paid to benefiting the extremely wealthy in Georgia. Colonial Georgia's government had no participation from the average citizen.
The last American colony was: "The colony of Georgia," which later became the state of Georgia. It was the 13th colony in America, founded 50 years after the original 12 and funded by the British Parliament as a place to ship off inmates from crowded debtors prisons. The prisoners (most of whom were non violent) were simply not able to pay off their past debts and the new colony was a chance for them to start a new life. This is called indentured servitude, which is similar to slavery. The Georgia colony represented the first time that area of land was marked on a map as a defined location outside of past Indian control. The original charter granted control of the colony to a group of trustees for 21 years. However the original trustees were never able to establish their own government fully in control over the people and when they eventually gave up; rather than being a free colony, Georgia became a royal colony with a governor appointed by the king of England. The colony of Georgia later became the 4th US state when the governing body approved the US constitution and signed it's allegiance to the United States instead of England, officially converting it from the colony of Georgia to the state of Georgia.
