Answer:

It instituted the headright system, giving 50 acres of land to each colonist who paid for his own or another's passage.

Explanation:

The headright system was a system that was created in 1618 in Jamestown, Virginia. Under this system, new settlers that arrived to Virginia by paying their own way were given 50 acres of land. This was an incentive designed to attract new settlers to the region due to the labor shortage that the colony faced. This system was eventually expanded, and could be found in Georgia, North Carolina, South Carolina and Maryland.
