Buffer-something that
keeps two incompatible
things separated.
Using the definition
above, why do you think
Georgia was referred to
as a “buffer colony”?
GEORGIA: A “DEBTOR”
AND “BUFFER”
COLONY
Essential Question: What role did the colony of Georgia play in
the development of the 13 colonies? (8.7)
The Colony of Georgia Founded in 1732
https://youtu.be/6utWkHZvtIk?t=35
James Oglethorpe
◻ Received a charter
from George II to start
a colony
◻ Oglethorpe chaired a
committee to expose
British abuses against
debtors in prisons
◻ Because of
Oglethorpe’s
committee, many
debtors were
released with no
support and many
resorted to crime
A “Debtors” Colony
◻ Oglethorpe was
granted the charter
to form a new
colony in the New
World
◻ The purpose of this
colony would be so
debtors and other
poor people could
have a fresh start
A “Buffer” Colony
◻ Great Britain had another
motive for allowing the
charter
◻ Great Britain and Spain had
been at war during the early
1700’s
◻ Conflicts were occurring over
colonized land in the New
World
◻ Georgia was strategically
located between Spanish-
controlled Florida and South
Carolina to serve as a
“buffer” or military barrier
◻ The goal was to prevent the
Spanish from colonizing
further
Characteristics of Georgia
◻ Oglethorpe wanted the
people to be hardworking,
independent, and
Protestant
◻ Oglethorpe banned
slavery, Catholicism, and
rum
◻ Most of the population
were just poor people
instead of debtors
◻ Religious refugees from
Germany and Switzerland
settled there as well as
some Jews
◻ Georgia would have the
highest non-British
population of the colonies
Summarizer
Based on today’s lesson, what 3 words
would you use to describe the colony of
Georgia. You can’t use “debtor” or “buffer”.
Explain your choices.
Extension Activity
You are going to write an imaginary paper
detailing the founding of Georgia. Therefore,
you must be able to organize your information.
To do so, fill in the outline provided on your
note sheet.
