This state is divided into the Appalachian Highlands northwest, and the Atlantic Coastal Plain southeast. The highlands further divide into the Cumberland Plateau Section of the Appalachian Plateaus in Georgia's far northwest corner; the Tennessee Section of the Valley and Ridge Province to the plateau's southeast; the beginning of the southern section of the Blue Ridge Province in the northeast; and the Upland Piedmont Section of the Piedmont Province southeast of the Valley and Ridge and Blue Ridge Provinces.
The Atlantic Coastal Plain is divided here into the East Gulf Plain and--along the Atlantic Ocean--the Sea Islands Section.
This state is in the part of North America in which English-speakers and Christians are the majority.
Atlanta, Georgia's capital, is in the Piedmont Upland and commands the state's fertile black soil belt.
Two Muskogean groups lived here: the Seminole in the south and the Hitchiti in the middle. One local former religion included the southeastern harvest festival and rite of new fire. The Seminole were forcibly removed to Oklahoma by a south-central U.S. warlord, later elected president for his popular genocide(1).
The British arrived at the coast and pushed their way westward, violently displacing the natives. Some of them brought slaves, descended from Africans.
