Land Lottery System

I want answers Ms. Sue but thank you

The correct answer is C) Land Lottery system.

To arrive at this answer, we can break down the options and eliminate the incorrect ones.

A) The headright system was an earlier method of land distribution in Georgia, where land was distributed based on the number of individuals in a family. However, this system was not used between 1805 and 1833, so we can eliminate it as the answer.

B) The Yazoo Land system was a corrupt land distribution scheme in the early 19th century where Georgia legislators were bribed to sell large tracts of land to private companies at extremely low prices. However, this system did not involve selling land to families and individuals for a few pennies, so we can eliminate it as the answer as well.

D) The Georgia Gold Rush system refers to the mass migration of people to Georgia in the 1820s and 1830s in search of gold. While this period overlaps with the land distribution system in question, the Georgia Gold Rush system is unrelated to the specific land distribution process described in the question. Thus, we can eliminate it as the answer.

This leaves us with C) Land Lottery system, which was the correct method of land distribution used in Georgia between 1805 and 1833. Under this system, Georgia divided the land into lots and distributed these lots to eligible individuals through a lottery. Many of these lots were sold for very low prices, often just a few pennies.
