SC's not that big. Makes me wonder why she's ceding lands in the first place. <img border=">

Georgia loves a border dispute.

Didn't they for a while with South Carolina over the line which is the Savannah River because the river was diverted after the state line was established.

lol that wouldn't surprise me at all

fought w/SC over islands in the Savannah River

Beaufort County specifically, if I recall from years back (not sure why not Jasper County, maybe it didn't exist yet when dispute started). they're just generally a most disagreeable bunch. They have gripes with pretty much everybody they share a border with.

Continuing Disputes
There have been several modifications of the boundary line between Georgia and South Carolina over the years because of alterations along the Savannah River, including erosion, the accretion of islands and banks, and changes in the river course itself. In 1990 the U.S. Supreme Court heard the most recent lawsuit between Georgia and South Carolina, which concerned ownership of some islands in the river and commercial fishing rights.

The subject is the message.
