Georgia an overview

We find many places worldwide named after their leaders, owners, or some great people who have worked for a cause. Still, there is a country named after a king who is not even from the continent, and that is Georgia, one of the renowned states in the United States of America and the king whom it’s named after is King George 2 of Great Britain. It is one of the seven federal states that were originally formed. It has a great history and is important among the 50 United States.

We can surely imagine how much these Georgians might have had by living by the border south to Florida. It’s a great holiday spot very nearby, with Tennessee in its north along with North Carolina. It’s located by the Atlantic Ocean on the east and also South Carolina and Alabama on the west.

Atlanta is the capital city of Georgia. Many other well-known cities, such as Athens, Columbus, Augusta, Macon, and Savannah, are engaged with good populations. Its population was estimated at 1.1 million by the end of 2014, with an increase of 409,690 from 2010, with a ratio of 2:1 for births to death and increased migrants into the country at approximately six hundred and seven thousand. Among the population, whites are the dominant number at 56%, blacks or American Africans at 30%, and the rest are American Indians, Hawaiians, Alaskans, pacific islanders, Hispanics, and Latinos.

Highlights of Georgia

Jimmy Carter, the president of the United States, had run for the position from his constituency in Georgia from 1977 to 1981. The state was named King George 2 of Great Britain as it was colonized by his trustee, James Oglethorpe. Before the British, it was a habitat for building cultures. After colonizing, the king appointed a governor to control the colony, which was the crown colony. Later, after joining the American Revolution against British rule, it was declared independent in 1776. Then, the first constitution became accessible in 1777. It stood as the tenth state to get confederated on July 24th, 1778, and also the last to confederate the reconstruction of the Union among the states of the United States.

It is enriched by the beauty of the Atlantic coast and mountain ranges, exotic flora and fauna, and one of the largest collections of soft drink memorabilia at Coca-Cola World. Tourists are also seen visiting civil war sights all over Georgia, approximately 400 in number, and the island known as Cumberland, with its long seashore, can catch your eyes with wild horses running around the island.
