Georgia is a state in the Southeast region of the United States. Its capital is Atlanta
and is nicknamed the Peach State. Georgia is bordered to the north by Tennessee and North
Carolina, to the east by South Carolina, to the south by Florida, and to the west by
Alabama. Most of the northern part of Georgia is part of the Piedmont Plateau. Three
regions of the Appalachian Mountains make up most of the northern part of Georgia. The
Blue Ridge is under a solid crystal rock or rocks such as gneiss. The northwestern corner
of Georgia contains narrow, mostly unfertile valleys bordered by ridges.
