Georgia's Creek War Campaign

Описание: The Georgia campaign of the Creek War was marked by significant military engagements as Georgia prepared to defend against the Creeks following the attack on Fort Mims in September 1813. With tensions escalating, Georgia mobilized its Volunteer Army and state militia, under leaders such as Brigadier General John Floyd and Major General David Adams, to protect its border along the Ocmulgee River. Supported by Cherokee and Creek allies, Floyd's force of over 2,362 men aimed to confront the Creeks near the Coosa and Tallapoosa rivers, making strategic advancements by constructing forts and engaging in fierce battles. Notably, the destruction of the Creek town Autossee and a series of confrontations that culminated in the battle at Calebee Creek underscored the intense struggle for control over the territory. Despite facing substantial Creek resistance, highlighted by a determined counterattack led by leaders including William Weatherford, Georgia's campaigns significantly impacted the course of the Creek War.
