Answer:

Georgia

Step-by-step explanation:

Georgia became the last colony to establish in 1732 by the English in America. General James Edward Oglethorpe became the founder of the colony, who brought English debtor from England. The colony named after King George II of England, who gave the Royal Charter for the colony of Georgia to be settle. The debtors were given land to cultivate and to start a new life in the colony. The British interest in the colony was to increase trade and wealth for England.
