You are correct, the immigrant group that came to Georgia unwillingly are the slaves. Slavery was a system where Africans were forcibly brought to the Americas, including Georgia, to work as laborers on plantations. To determine the correct answer, one can analyze the characteristics of each immigrant group and their reasons for migrating to Georgia.
A. Quakers: Quakers were a religious group who faced religious persecution in England and sought religious freedom in the American colonies. They migrated to Georgia voluntarily.
B. Scots-Irish: The Scots-Irish were a group of Presbyterian settlers from Northern Ireland who migrated to the American colonies, including Georgia, in search of fertile land and economic opportunities. They came voluntarily as well.
C. Slaves: Slaves were forcibly captured in Africa and transported against their will to work as forced laborers on plantations. They were brought to Georgia and other Southern states to meet the labor demands of the agrarian economy, particularly in industries such as cotton and tobacco. Slavery was a brutal and involuntary immigration experience.
D. Puritans: Puritans were a religious group who sought to reform the Church of England. They initially settled in the northern colonies such as Massachusetts Bay, and did not come to Georgia.
Therefore, the correct answer is C. slaves, as they were brought to Georgia against their will as part of the transatlantic slave trade.
