During which period did Georgia transition through multiple capitals?

The period from 1733 to 1865 encompasses significant transitions in Georgia's capital locations, reflecting the state's growth and development. Initially, the capital was established in Savannah in 1733, the year of the colony's founding. As Georgia evolved, the capital moved several times to accommodate the changing needs of governance and population centers.

In 1784, the capital was relocated to Augusta, and after a short period, the capital moved again to Louisville in 1796. This transition was part of the effort to find a more centrally located capital as the state expanded westward. Eventually, in 1822, the capital settled in Milledgeville, which served as the capital until it was moved to Atlanta in 1868, following the Civil War.

This choice captures the comprehensive timeline during which Georgia continually adapted its governmental center, reflecting both its colonial beginnings and the significant changes occurring through the antebellum period and into the Reconstruction era. The other answer choices are narrower in scope and do not encapsulate the full series of capital transitions that occurred within the broader timeframe of 1733 to 1865.
