Fort Christanna was one of the projects of Lt. Governor Alexander Spotswood, who was governor of the Virginia Colony 1710–1722. When Fort Christanna opened in 1714, Capt. Robert Hicks was named captain of the fort and he relocated his family to the area. His homestead "Hick’s Ford" is close to the modern city of Emporia in Greensville County, VA. The fort was designed to offer protection and schooling to the tributary Siouan and Iroquoian tribes living to the southwest of the colonized area of Virginia. Located in what became Brunswick County, Virginia, near Gholsonville, the fort was completed in 1714 and enjoyed three successful years of operation as the westernmost outpost of the British Empire at the time, before being finally closed by the House of Burgesses in 1718.

rdfs:comment	Fort Christanna war eine Befestigungsanlage auf dem Gebiet des heutigen Brunswick Countys in Virginia an der Grenze zu North Carolina. Der Name setzt sich aus Christus und Queen Anne zusammen. Das Fort wurde von Gouverneur Alexander Spotswood im Jahr 1714 erbaut und 1718 wieder geschlossen. Es diente den Siedlern, insbesondere aber ebenso den benachbarten Indianern als Schutz gegen feindliche Stämme. Darüber hinaus sollten die Indianer missioniert werden und eine Schule besuchen, um die englische Sprache und Kultur zu erlernen. (de) Fort Christanna was one of the projects of Lt.
