History & Culture

As the youngest of the thirteen colonies, Georgia harbors a fascinating history and culture that makes this southern state truly unique. However, oddly enough, Georgia’s namesake is King George II, the ruler of England at the time of European settling. In terms of its size, Georgia is the largest of the US states east of the Mississippi River, and was even larger in its days as a colony (as it included present day Alabama and Mississipi).

Today, Georgia boasts a population of over 9 million and is known for its variety of crops including pecans, onions, and of course the iconic peach. Thousands of people flock to this southern state each year to visit the Atlanta National Golf Club, where the Masters are hosted annually. Not to mention, the beautiful year-round weather is truly a sight to behold.

 

Buy this keepsake ornament as a unique gift to commemorate your trip to Georgia, or make it a gift for someone as sweet as a peach, in your life.
