D. English debtors. James Oglethorpe founded Georgia for debtors because he sympathized with them (even mothers were locked up in jail for small debts). Also, it was a buffer state that kept the colonies safe from the Spanish in Florida (if they attacked they would have to go through Georgia first and they were only debtors so it didn't matter as much).
