The correct answer is "B".

The Port of Savannah, Georgia is a major seaport located in the Gulf Coast. During the 19th century, a network of railroads was built in order to connect the port with domestic markets located in the western part of the country. This prompted rapid growth in the operations of the port, making it a key participant in commerce throughout that century.
