Answer:

The colony's corporate charter was granted to General James Oglethorpe on April

21, 1732, by George II, for whom the colony was named. ... Oglethorpe envisioned

a colony which would serve as a haven for English subjects who had been

imprisoned for debt and "the worthy poor".

Explanation:

Twenty trustees received funding from Parliament and a charter from the

King, issued in June 1732 . The charter granted the trustees the powers of a

corporation; they could elect their own governing body, make land grants, and

enact their own laws and taxes.

The Shays Rebellion led to Congress passing a resolution that said that states will send delegates to a convention with the task of revising the Articles of Confederation in order to Strengthen the central government. 

The Shays Rebellion:

Was an attempted rebellion by disgruntled ex-Revolutionary War soldiers who were in debt
Had to be put down by the states
Showed the weakness of the federal government as it had to appeal to help from states

As a result, Congress passed a resolution that called for a Constitutional Convention that would pass a new Constitution that would make the government strong enough that such a rebellion would not happen again.

In conclusion, the resolution was to strengthen the government.
