別名「桃州」 (Peach
State) 的喬治亞建於1733年，它是最初的13州之一。為紀念英王喬治二世 (England's
King George II) ，遂以其名號為該州命名。內戰 (Civil
War) 時，亞特蘭大 (Atlanta) 一役是南方各州戰敗的轉捩點。時至今日，於1868年成為喬治亞首府的亞特蘭大是一座興盛的城市，有重要的國家企業，亦可視為美國東南部的經濟和文化中心。喬治亞的州花是奇羅基玫瑰。
Known today as the "Peach State," Georgia, founded in 1733, is one of the original 13 states. It was named in honor of England's King George II. During the Civil War, the fall of Atlanta was a crucial turning point in the defeat of the South. Today, Atlanta, which became Georgia's capital in 1868, is a thriving city with major national corporations, and it is considered the economic and cultural center of the Southeast. The state flower is the Cherokee rose.
