Bradley R. Rice and Harvey H. Jackson said in their 1988 book, Georgia, the Empire State of the South, "Even before the Civil War, proud boosters hoping for industrialization to complement the slave-based cotton culture had dubbed Georgia the "Empire State of the South."

In the 1936 book Empire, Georgia Today in Photographs and Paragraphs by Emily Woodward she wrote, "Any area that offers the essentials of living to more than three milliion people is, within itself, an EMPIRE. Such an area is GEORGIA."
