英语词汇georgia的起源、历史背景-英语词源词典

Georgia. Georgia is named for George II of England (1683– 1760). Discovered by Hernando de Soto in 1540, it became the last of the 13 original colonies in 1732 when a British charter was granted for the establishment of “the Colony of Georgia in America.” George II, a methodical man who “took the greatest pleasure in counting his money piece by piece, and . . . never forgot a date,” wasn’t a particularly popular monarch. Histori- ans straining for something interesting to say about him seem only to be able to tell us that he was the last British sovereign to command an army in the field—at the battle of Dettingen (June 27, 1743) in the War of the Austrian Succession.
