Known as the Peach State and the Empire State of the South, Georgia is the seventh largest state in the nation in terms of population; its capital, Atlanta, is the fourth fastest growing city in the US with a population of slightly more than 5 million. Georgia was one of the original thirteen colonies and was also one of the original seven states to form the Confederacy and secede from the United States at the beginning of the Civil War. Today its leaders are very progressive in raising awareness of racial issues and providing equal opportunities for all people; Georgia became the first southern state to elect a black governor.
The famous film from 1939, Gone With The Wind, was based on General Sherman’s March to the Sea in which his army looted and burned to the ground a large swath of Georgia beginning north of Atlanta and ending in Savannah. Other notable movies filmed on location in Georgia include Driving Miss Daisy and Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil. Atlanta was home to one of the most famous humorists and writers: the very funny Lewis Grizzard. Raised in Newnan by his single mother, he wrote a daily column for the Atlanta Constitution which are later collected into best selling books. Perhaps his funniest line would be the definition of a perfect ”10” is a deaf and dumb woman whose father owns a liquor store.
