Explanation:

Royal Governors took over the administration of Georgia after the Trustee period ended and instituted changes that made Georgia more prosperous.

Governors such as Henry Ellis and James Wright not only lifted restrictions on Land ownership, they also encouraged more enslaved people in Georgia. These two factors allowed Georgia to develop huge plantations which through the exploitation of slave labor, gave rise to massive yields in tobacco, wheat and indigo bringing wealth to a formerly impoverished colony.
