Detailed explanation-1: -What is the connection that can be drawn between the headright system of the late eighteenth century and the land lotteries of the early nineteenth century in Georgia? BOTH WERE GOVERNMENT EFFORTS TO ATTRACT SETTLERS TO GEORGIA AND ENCOURAGE ECONOMIC GROWTH.
Detailed explanation-2: -The headright system grants between 200 and 1, 000 acres of land to the heads of families. By giving men land, they were able to obtain power. Farmers soon came looking for fertile farmland. Ranchers also flocked to Georgia in search of grazing areas for their livestock.
Detailed explanation-3: -Both the headright system and the founding of the University of Georgia were based on granting land by the government. Both the headright system and the founding of the University of Georgia were designed to keep Georgians living in the eastern part of the state.
Detailed explanation-4: -Why was the land lottery more successful than the headright system? More settlers moved to the eastern coast. Why did Georgia give up land claims in what is now Mississippi and Alabama? The state did not have the millions of dollars required to purchase the land from Spain.
