Why was James Oglethorpe considered a hero?

Answer:

They say James is a hero because he established Georgia. He also directed the economic and political development of the new colony, defended its military, and continued to generously recruit settlers in England. He also made friends with the natives so they could do trading with each other.

Hope this is fine for you!!
