In the 1750s, Georgia was a British colony, established in 1732 as a buffer against Spanish Florida and a place for debtors and the poor. Governed by a royal charter, it was led by a governor appointed by the British crown, with a colonial assembly that had limited power. The society was primarily agrarian, relying on plantations and slave labor, particularly for rice and indigo production. Tensions with Native American tribes and internal disputes over land and governance marked this period.
