Savannah, the county seat of Chatham County, is the oldest city in Georgia, serving as the initial state capital and the British colonial capital of the Province of Georgia. It was founded in 1733 on the Savannah River and played a crucial role as a port city during the American Revolution and the Civil War. Today, Savannah is a prominent industrial center and Atlantic seaport, boasting a population of 147,780 people as per the census, making it the fifth-largest city in Georgia. Furthermore, the Savannah metropolitan region, Georgia's third-largest, was home to 404,798 people in 2020.

Every year, millions of tourists flock to Savannah to explore its cobblestone streets, parks, and remarkable historic buildings. The city boasts several noteworthy structures, including the Georgia Historical Society, the oldest continuously operating historical society in the southern United States; the Telfair Academy of Arts and Sciences, one of the first public museums in the South; the First African Baptist Church; the third-oldest synagogue in the country; and the Centennial Building. One of these buildings, the oldest standing antebellum rail facility in the U.S., now serves as a museum and visitor center and is also the birthplace of Juliette Gordon Low, the founder of the Girl Scouts of the USA.
