Georgia was one of the original seven slave states that formed the Confederate States of America in February 1861, triggering the U.S. Civil War. The state governor, Democrat Joseph E. Brown, wanted locally raised troops to be used only for the defence of Georgia, in defiance of Confederate president Jefferson Davis, who wanted to deploy them on other battlefronts. When the Union blockade prevented Georgia from exporting its plentiful cotton in exchange for key imports, Brown ordered farmers to grow food instead, but the breakdown of transport systems led to desperate shortages.

  • La República de Geòrgia era el terme informal com s'anomenava ocasionalment a l'Estat nord-americà de Geòrgia immediatament després de la seva secessió dels Estats Units d'Amèrica el 19 de gener de 1861. L'ordenança, feta pública aquell mateix dia, tenia com a punt més destacat: "Declarem i ordenem, que la Unió que ara existeix entre l'Estat de Geòrgia i els altres Estats, sota el nom dels Estats Units d'Amèrica, queda dissolta, i que l'Estat de Geòrgia està en plena possessió de drets per a exercir el seu poder i drets de sobirania en el que respecta a un Estat lliure i independent", i al·legava com a motiu de la seva separació l'abolició de l'esclavitud que, es creia, volia promulgar Abraham Lincoln, el nou President dels Estats Units, i que efectivament acabaria aprovant el 1863.

  • La Georgia nella guerra di secessione americana fu uno dei sette Stati federati originari che formarono gli Stati Confederati d'America nel febbraio del 1861, dando così il via alla guerra civile. Il governatore della Georgia avrebbe desiderato che le truppe della milizia locale venissero utilizzate esclusivamente per la difesa del territorio, sfidando in tal modo apertamente il Presidente degli Stati Confederati d'America - il secessionista del Mississippi, Jefferson Davis, il quale voleva invece schierarle anche su altri fronti.

  • La Géorgie est l'un des sept premiers États esclavagistes qui forment les États confédérés d'Amérique en février 1861, provoquant la guerre de Sécession. Le gouverneur de l'État, le démocrate Joseph E. Brown, veut lever des troupes localement pour être utilisées uniquement à la défense de la Géorgie, au mépris de Jefferson Davis qui veut les déployer sur d'autres fronts. Lorsque le blocus de l'Union empêche la Géorgie d'exporter son coton abondant en échange d'importations essentielles, Brown ordonne aux fermiers de produire plutôt des cultures vivrières, mais l'effondrement des systèmes de transports aboutit à des pénuries désespérées.
