Georgia

Georgia's topography is notably diverse, characterized by five main geographic regions that each contribute to its unique landscape. The southern part of the state features the Coastal Plain, a flat, low-lying area that gently slopes toward the Atlantic Ocean and is home to the expansive Okefenokee Swamp, one of the largest freshwater wetlands in the United States. Moving north, the terrain transitions into the Piedmont region, marked by rolling hills and richer soils that support dense forests. This area includes significant elevations such as Stone Mountain, which rises about 1,686 feet (514 meters) above sea level. Further north, the Blue Ridge region showcases the rugged terrain of the Appalachian Mountains, with peaks like Brasstown Bald, the highest point in Georgia at 4,784 feet (1,458 meters). Additionally, the Ridge and Valley region to the west features a series of parallel ridges and valleys, while the Appalachian Plateau in the northwestern corner is characterized by its steep hills and deep gorges. Together, these regions create a rich tapestry of landscapes, influencing both the ecology and the culture of Georgia.
