At the time of the arrival of settlers from Europe, it was inhabited largely by the Cherokee. The counties of north Georgia were often scenes of important events in the history of Georgia. It was the site of many American Civil War battles, including the Battle of Lookout Mountain and the Battle of Chickamauga, leading up to the Atlanta Campaign. 

Echota Historic Site is a Cherokee Indian settlement located in the Great Smoky Mountains of North Carolina. The site is the location of the former capital of the Cherokee Nation, known as the Overhill Cherokee, and was the site of the signing of the Treaty of Echota in 1835. This treaty was signed by a small group of Cherokee leaders and the U.S. government and led to the forced removal of the Cherokee people from their ancestral lands to present-day Oklahoma. Today, the site is preserved and offers visitors a chance to learn about the history and culture of the Cherokee Nation. Visitors can walk the nature trails, explore the reconstructed Cherokee council house, and view exhibits and artifacts that highlight the history and significance of the site
