Meanings
- Official nickname for Georgia: a state of the United States.
According to the state of Georgia, I was clear to drive a vehicle for another six months. The Peach State also was under the impression that I lived at 1104 Lynn Valley Road.
2018, Tayari Jones, An American Marriage, Oneworld Publications, page 1811 more example
The great train snaked on through the dark, pounding out the miles through the empty plains and mingy hamlets of Georgia, the 'Peach State', the angry moan of its four-toned wind-horn soughing over the wide savannah and the long shaft of its single searchlight ripping the black calico of the night.
1954, Ian Fleming, “Allumeuse”, in Live and Let Die, London: Pan Books, published 1957, page 115
