Atlanta is the state capital and the seat of Fulton County. The city is located on the Piedmont Plateau, at the foot of the Blue Ridge Mountains. Former community names include The Canebrake, Marthasville and White Hall. The present name refers to Atlanta's spot as the terminus of the Western & Atlantic Railroad.
The impression of Tom Wolfe in 'A Man in Full' describes Atlanta's evolution: "Atlanta had never been a true Old Southern city, like Savannah or Charleston or Richmond, where wealth had originated with the land. Atlanta was an offspring of the railroad business."
No mention of Atlanta is complete without recognizing one of its great sons, Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. His boyhood home on Auburn Avenue in the Sweet Auburn district is preserved as the Martin Luther King, Jr. National Historic Site, among Atlanta's interesting sites.
Modern Atlanta is famous for hosting the 1996 Olympic Games. Atlanta is also known worldwide as the founding city and home of the Cable News Network (CNN).
