Dublin is the county seat of Laurens County, Georgia. The city was named after Dublin, Ireland, because the Middle Georgia Piedmont reminded Irish settlers of terrain in their native country. Located halfway between Savannah and Atlanta, the small city became home to an assortment of industrial distribution centers, which complemented various industries--textiles, furniture, and paper, among others--that had already established themselves there in the second half of the 20th century.
