Georgia was founded in 1732 by James Oglethorpe as a British colony intended to serve as a refuge for debtors and the impoverished. Oglethorpe initially outlawed slavery in the colony, believing that it would promote a more equitable society and encourage hard work among settlers. However, this ban was lifted in 1750, and slavery became a significant part of Georgia's economy in the following years.

Slavery
James Oglethorpe in 1733 sailed to what is near present day Savannah were a series of settlements and forts were constructed that ultimately became the colony of Georgia. It was intended to be a debtor's haven and act as a buffer between Spanish Florida and British North America. Moreover, Oglethorpe actually had slavery outlawed when the colony was first founded, but because of trying economic times and from social pressures, he eventually allowed slavery to take hold of the colony which led to an economic boom in the region.
