History
Before the Spanish colonization of America, an Indian culture existed in Georgia, described by Hernando de Soto in 1540 and completely disappeared by 1560. For some time, the Spaniards dominated here, at the end of the 17th century they began to clash with the British for the right to own the region. In 1724, the British established their rule over the area, announcing the establishment of the “Georgia Colony” in honor of King George I.
