'''Georgia''' is a state in the southern [[United States]]. It was one of the original [[Colonial America|thirteen British colonies]] in the [[United States]].  It was the only colony not affiliated with a religious group: it was founded as a penal colony, much like [[Australia]] (though today it, like much of the American [[The South|South]], is highly religious).
