What is the answer
To determine which of the following options describes James Oglethorpe and the trustees who wanted to start the colony of Georgia, let's analyze each option:
1. Wealthy: James Oglethorpe himself was wealthy, but the primary objective of establishing the colony of Georgia was not to increase personal wealth. Therefore, this option does not fully describe Oglethorpe and the trustees' intentions.
2. Philanthropists: Oglethorpe and the trustees were indeed philanthropists. Their motive for establishing the Georgia colony was to provide a fresh start for debtors and to create a haven for religious freedom.
3. Served as head of trustees of Georgia: James Oglethorpe did serve as the head of the trustees of Georgia. The trustees who governed the colony worked to create a sustainable and equitable society that was intended to prevent the concentration of power and wealth.
Based on the explanations above, the correct answer is "Philanthropists." Oglethorpe and the trustees wanted to start the colony of Georgia as a philanthropic endeavor aimed at helping debtors and ensuring religious freedom.
