The "Fall Line" in Georgia marks the dividing point between the Piedmont region and the Coastal Plain (also known as the Atlantic Coastal Plain). The Fall Line is a geological feature that represents the boundary between the harder, resistant rocks of the Piedmont and the softer, more easily eroded sediments of the Coastal Plain. It's characterized by a series of waterfalls and rapids, and historically, it was significant for its impact on transportation and industry, as it provided a source of water power for mills and factories.
