The last colony to be settled was The Providence of Georgia. There are two main reasons why. First, most of the settles who came from England embarked either on the north of the colonies or the Chesapeake region, so it took a while to go more south. Second, Georgia was right next to Florida, which at that time, was colonized by the Spanish. So, settling in Georgia can be dangerous since the Spaniards might attack, that’s why Georgia was the “buffer” colony, to protect the rest of the colonies from attack.

colony name (year founded/seized by English settlers) founded by 1-Virginia (1607) London Company 2-Massachusetts (1620) Puritans 3-New Hampshire (1623) John Wheelwright 4-Maryland (1634) Lord Baltimore 5-Connecticut (1635) Thomas Hooker 6-Rhode Island (1636) Roger Williams 7-Delaware (1638) Peter Minuit and New Sweden Company 8-North Carolina (1653) Virginians 9-South Carolina (1663) Eight Nobles with a Royal Charter from Charles II 10-New Jersey (1664) Lord Berkeley and Sir George Carteret 11-New York (1664) Duke of York 12-Pennsylvania (1682) William Penn 13-Georgia (1732) James Edward Oglethorpe Alot of people seems to have alot of different answers but make sure those dates match up when the English settlers took over the colony from other Countries, for example – New York 1624 founded as New Netherland by the Dutch West India Company and was seized by the English in 1664 and renamed New York after the Duke of York which makes it an American (English) colony in 1664 not 1624. Do your homework peoples, Good Luck I hope this help you I know I’m a nerd. nerds rule
