Option C, macon is the right answer.

Throughout history, there have been five different capitals of Georgia. The first known capital of Georgia was Savannah. As the majority of people were not happy with this capital, therefore, in 1754, an attempt was made to change the capital. As a result, during the American Augusta, Heard's Fort, and other regions served as temporary capitals. After the end of British rule, Augusta was made the capital of Georgia, then Louisville while a new city was being built on the Oconee River. However, by 1847 some were afflicted with Milledgeville and hence called for a preference to transfer the capital to Atlanta.

Therefore, macon never became the capital of Georgia.
