In 1732, James Edward Oglethorpe (1696–1785) received from King George II of England. (1683–1760) a charter entitling him to establish a new North American colony. In honor of the king, the colony was called Georgia. This last of the original 13 American colonies was established to provide an opportunity for poor British landless people and released prisoners. However, attempts to produce silk, wine and spices have had limited success. In 1752, Georgia returned to royal control. See Georgia abbreviation.
Before the American Revolution, the new settlement began to develop on the eastern border along the Savannah River. The wave of immigration led to the forced relocation of local Native American tribes across the Mississippi River. This was followed by the construction of large cotton plantations and the importation of black slaves from Africa.
In January 1861, the State Assembly voted to withdraw from the Union. In 1864, after a long blockade and a series of attacks, the federal army under General William Tecumsh Sherman (1820-1891) destroyed the city of Atlanta and severely devastated the country as it approached the coast. In 1865, Confederate President Jefferson Davis (1808-1889) was captured on Georgian soil.
During the period of economic reconstruction in the South, local politicians continued to refuse to grant blacks basic human rights. This situation remained unchanged for another century. The integration of black and white children in schools was the subject of heated debate as early as 1967. Since then, however, African Americans have played an increasingly active role in society, and Georgia’s capital, Atlanta, became the first major city in the South in 1973 to elect a black mayor.
Cotton cultivation has partially given way to peanuts, soybeans and corn. The traditional textile, clothing and paper industries have been overtaken by electronics and aircraft manufacturing. Numerous military facilities are also of economic importance. The country has the largest deposits of kaolin in the country. Atlanta is a huge hub and also the headquarters of Coca-Cola. Dynamic development in recent years has made the city one of the most important business and financial centers in the United States. The importance of the city was underlined by the allocation of the Olympic Games in 1996.
