North Carolina was founded primarily for economic opportunities and as a refuge for dissenters from other colonies. Initially settled by English explorers in the late 16th century, it became a place for agriculture, particularly tobacco cultivation. The colony was also established to provide a buffer against Spanish and French expansion in the southeastern region of North America. Over time, North Carolina attracted a diverse population seeking land and a chance for a better life.
