Answer:

Agriculture

Step-by-step explanation:

Georgia Colony mostly depended on agriculture during the colonial period. The colony was established by General James Oglethorpe in 1732, and named after George II. It was unusual in that its reliance on plantations was less than in other colonies, as well as the fact that it did not allow slavery. Although slavery was prohibited in 1735, it was legalized by 1751.
