Richland
Richland County was formed in 1785 as part of the Camden District. The county seat is Columbia, which also serves as the State Capital. Charleston was the capital until 1786, when the state legislature decided a more central location would be preferred. Columbia was laid out specifically for this purpose. The city was burned by General Sherman during the Civil War. The University of South Carolina is located in Columbia. It was founded in 1802.
