The Trustee period of Georgia, was the first 20 years of Georgia history. It is referred to the Trustee period, because a Board of Trustees ran the colony.
The trustee period in Georgia lasted from 1732 to 1752, totaling 20 years. During this time, the colony was governed by a group of trustees appointed by the British crown, who aimed to create a settlement for debtors and the poor. The trustees implemented various social and economic policies before the colony was transitioned to a royal colony in 1752.

Slavery in the Georgia colony was a significant institution where enslaved Africans were used for labor in plantations, primarily cultivating rice, indigo, and later cotton. The colony's founder, James Oglethorpe, initially banned slavery, but it was later legalized in 1750 due to economic pressures. By the time of the American Revolution, Georgia had a substantial enslaved population.
The Georgia colony gave those whose financial affairs had landed them in Debtors Prison a second change at life by committing to working in Georgia, initially growing Mulberry trees. Once a designated time had lapsed, these workers would be allocated land of their own and a chance to restart their lives.

Slavery was banned in Georgia during its time as a royal colony due to the Trustees' belief that slavery would hinder the colony's economic development. The Trustees also saw slavery as morally wrong and hoped to create a colony based on free labor and equality.
