Georgia was a Royal Colony where the majority of the population were Tories <em>(Colonists that remained loyal to Great Britain</em>), while in the New England colonies Whigs or Patriots (<em>Colonists that wanted Independence from Great Britain</em>) were the majority.

<em>People were motivated to remain loyal to Great Britain in Georgia because of the prosperity they lived when </em><em>Royal Governor James Wright</em><em> came to power</em>, James Wright was a loved Governor by Georgians and because he was loyal to the king he fought hard enough to keep them from joining the revolutionary cause.

When the movement became stronger in other colonies and larger taxes and trade regulations were imposed Patriots began to grow in Georgia, even when they were not the majority they managed to capture Governor James Wright, then sent<em> Lyman Hall to the Second Continental Congress</em>, and turned Georgia intro a rebel colony.

What compromise did henry clay achieve in order to resolve the nullification crisis?
arlik [135]

The <em>nullification crisis was a crisis between South and North America.</em> It happened during the presidency of Andrew Jackson and it consisted of the Ordinance of Nullification that made possible to the state of South Carolina to nullify federal laws that were passed by the United States Congress.

Henry Clay was a congressman and during that time he made the proposal for the Compromise of 1850. This compromise <em>was a package of laws</em> that were passed by the Congress, it <em>created New Mexico and Utah, admitted California as a free state, made Texas loose territory for New Mexico state, ended Washington DC slave trade and made easier to slave owners to recover slaves that ran away</em>. Basically, this Compromise tried to cool things down and actually delayed civil war.
