The
state of Georgia has a long and interesting history. From a mission
province of Spanish Florida to a no-man's land between the Spanish and
British colonial empires to the joining of the United States, Georgia's
history is ripe with tales of explorers, conquerors and native peoples
vying for control. By the end of the colonial time, Georgia was firmly
one of the original 13 colonies that fought for, and won, independence
from Great Britain.
