Set on the Chattahoochee River near the Appalachian Mountains, Atlanta was once known as Terminus because it was the end of a major railway line. Now, it is not only the capital of the state of Georgia, but the center of a lot of international corporations. A lot of road routes and airlines link from the city. Being so central to the US east, more American companies have offices in Atlanta than any other city! [edit text][editors]
