Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The location of the Chattahoochee River has contributed to the development of trade in Georgia throughout its history, since rice and corn vessels sailed, agricultural products that made this state an important commercial and agro-industrial leader, during the war of independence from the United States.

Similarly, the timber sector benefited from this tributary thanks to the displacement of timber vessels. The improvement of the river to provide greater commercial navigability and passenger transport, brought progress in the production of hydroelectric energy, since it was necessary to create reservoirs and artificial lakes.
