Savannah, Georgia is situated within Chatham County where it also serves as the county seat. The former state capital of Georgia and the former colonial capital of the Province of Georgia is now an essential seaport and thriving industrial center. Savannah is the 4th biggest city in Georgia State and part of the 3rd biggest metropolitan area.

Savannah is a popular place for people to visit. Millions visit the city each and every year, mainly to see the historic architecture. There are lots of historic buildings, like the country's oldest standing antebellum rail facility, as well as the Telfair Academy of Arts and Sciences, among the South's first public museums. The First African Baptist Church has one of the country's oldest African American Baptist congregations. The historic home of Juliette Gordon Low, who founded of the Girl Scouts of the United States of America, is also in Savannah.

The city's recorded history dates back to 1733. An expedition led by British General James Oglethorpe landed along the Savannah River. Oglethorpe and Tomochichi, the local Yamacraw Indian chief, developed a friendship, that paved the way for the serene settlement of Savannah. The 120 inhabitants on the ship founded the colony of Georgia, that was named for King George II of England. As the first city of the colony, the city of Savannah represented a fresh start for England's poor emigrants. Its objective was to strengthen the colonies by fostering trade. The rich soil and mild climate of the area resulted in a major rice and cotton business. But it was the invention of the cotton gin that boosted the fortunes of the city. Savannah became a thriving commercial port.

During The Civil War, Savannah endured an economic hardship and a protracted blockage, ending in capture by Union forces. Savannah bounced back during post-war reconstruction and the cotton business once again caused the city of Savannah to flourish. Nevertheless, the devastating infestation of boll weevils and the Great Depression brought the city down again. Savannah was able to recoup following World War II.

The sectors of manufacturing, tourism and the military remain significant factors to the city's economy. The Port of Savannah is amongst the biggest container ports in the United states, likewise making it a major economic contributor to Savannah. One more important sector is Transportation. Lots of local residents are employed in the diverse manufacturing sector, which comprises more than 250 manufacturing facilities within the county. Amongst the city's biggest companies is International Paper. Another is Gulfstream Aerospace, that makes private jets. The North American headquarters of JCB, among the world's biggest construction equipment manufacturers, is situated within Savannah.

The military has a strong presence within the region, and employs a lot of people at Hunter Army Airfield and Fort Stewart.
