Warner Robins is the 11th largest city in the U.S. state of Georgia,
located primarily in Houston County with a small portion in Peach County.
The city is in the Macon metropolitan area.
As of the 2000 census, the city had a total population of 48,804.
The city was originally named Wellston, which was little more than a train stop for local farmers.
During World War II, in order to secure a military base, it was renamed after General Augustine Warner Robins.
It was founded in the early 1940s and survived a direct strike from an F4 tornado in April 1953.
This was one of the earliest tornadoes to be caught on film.
The city is nicknamed the "International City"; this comes from the number of people that live there from
all over the world brought together by nearby Robins Air Force Base.
The official motto of Warner Robins is EDIMGIAFAD, which is an acronym for
"Every Day In Middle Georgia Is Armed Forces Appreciation Day".
