History of Georgia (U.S. state)


 

The History of Georgia ranges from its Pre-Columbian settlement by Native American peoples to its modern status as a rapidly growing part of the United States. In the intervening time, Georgia was a Spanish colony, a British colony, and a member of the Confederate States of America. Georgia has had five "permanent" state capitals: Savannah, Augusta, Louisville, Milledgeville, and Atlanta. (Louisville is pronounced like Lewis , not like Louie , unlike the city in Kentucky that shares the same name.) The legislature has also met in other places temporarily.
