Best Answer

The geographical resources in Georgia, were some of the best among the other 12 American Colonies.

Mountains and ridges along Georgia's northern border slope, then southward to a wide belt of gently rolling hills. Flat coastal plains, extending eastward to the Atlantic Ocean, from the southern half of Georgia. Pine and hardwood forest covered large parts of Georgia, and still do after some 230 years ago, when the United States won its independence from Great Britain.

Georgia had plenty of water for the colonists, and the future state. Most of the rivers follow the general slope of land, and then they flow into the Atlantic Ocean or the Gulf of Mexico. The large rivers included the Altamaha, Chattahoochee, Flint, and Savannah. Some of the streams in northwestern Georgia, empty into the Tennessee River.

During the colonial period, the cash crops included tobacco, cotton, and peaches. By the time Georgia became the 4th state, on January 2, 1788, Georgia's biggest cash crop until the American Civil War, would be cotton.
