The conflict between
Spain
and
Great Britain
over control of
Georgia
began in
earnest in about 1670, when the British colony of
South Carolina
was founded just
north of the missionary provinces of Guale and Mocama, part of Spanish Florida.
Massive British settlement began in the early 1730s.
From 1735 to 1750, the trustees
of
Georgia
, unique among
Britain
's American colonies, prohibited African slavery
as a matter of public policy.
In 1776 the new state's exposed seaboard position made it a tempting target for the
British Navy.
Savannah
was captured by British and Loyalist forces in 1778, along
with some of its hinterland. Enslaved Africans and African Americans chose their
independence by escaping to British lines, where they were promised freedom. More than
one-third of
Georgia
's slaves, nearly 5,000 people, escaped during the Revolution.
The patriots moved to
Augusta
. At the Siege of Savannah in 1779, American and French
troops (the latter including a company of free blacks from
Haiti
) fought unsuccessfully to retake the city.
During the final years of the American Revolution,
Georgia
had a functioning Loyalist
c
olonial government along the coast. Together with
New York City
, it was the last Loyalist bastion.
