    to establish a freer system of government than the one in Massachusetts

    Explanation:

    The province of Georgia was one of the southern Colonies of British America and the last of the Thirteen Colonies to become independent from the Kingdom of Great Britain and to join the United States, of which it is currently a member. Previously, the territory extended to the Mississippi River.

    The Private Council of the United Kingdom established as of June 9, 1732, and for the next two decades the founding of councils that would allow greater self-government of the province with annual subsidy funds from the British Parliament. However, the difficulties and with the departure of Oglethorpe, Georgia became part in 1755 of the British colony.

    From 1732 to 1758 there were changes in several districts and localities. That same year Georgia was divided into eight parishes. In 1765 four more were added and in 1777 the eight counties of the newly formed State of Georgia were formed.

    The colony was settled near the Savannah River while the western part was under the control of the Native Creek Confederation until the outbreak of the American Civil War.
