A former republic of the Soviet Union, it shares borders with Russia in the north and Turkey Armenia Azerbaijan in the south. 10 External links and references Main article: History of Georgia Georgia was taken over by the Russian Tsarist Empire on September 12, 1801. After the Russian Revolution it declared independence on May 26, 1918 during the Russian Civil War. In February 25, 1921 the Democratic Republic of Georgia was occupied by Soviet Russia and was incorporated into a Transcaucasian Federative Soviet Socialist Republic uniting Georgia, Armenia and Azerbaijan. The TFSSR was disaggregated into its component elements in 1936 and Georgia became the Georgian Soviet Socialist Republic. During the perestroika reforms of the late 1980s, Georgia developed a vigorous multiparty system that strongly favoured independence. The country staged the first democratic multiparty elections in the Soviet Union on October 28, 1990. Shortly before the collapse of the Soviet Union on April 9, 1991, Georgia declared independence again. Several areas, including Abkhazia, Ajaria and South Ossetia, quickly became embroiled in separatist disputes that led to civil wars and widespread inter-ethnic violence. The Georgian government still does not control large parts of its territory and an uneasy ceasefire prevails in Abkhazia.

Paper #023603 :: The Republic of Georgia - Buy and instantly download this paper now A history of the Republic of Georgia since the fall of the U.S.S.R. 1,536 words, 8 sources, MLA, $ 51.95 USD Paper Summary: This paper discusses how the Republic of Georgia is a nation with its own history and now like so many other republics freed after the fall of the Soviet Empire, Georgia is reinventing its past and rediscovering what has been lost, forgotten, or distorted during the years of Soviet rule. It examines the factors that led up to its declaration of independence, the leaders involved, its economy then and now and the direction in which the country is headed. From the Paper: "In 1999, Pope John Paul visited the predominantly Orthodox Georgia. However, despite his pleas for closer ties between the two churches, "no Orthodox clergy attended his mass" (Sheets pg). His visit was seen by Georgians as more political than religious, helping to shine the international spotlight on Georgia. In his homily, the Pope expressed, "With its culture, history and faith, Georgia has always looked towards the West and has made its own contribution to Christian Europe" (Sheets pg). He went on to describe Georgia as a "model of respect and tolerance towards other religions and noted that places of worship for Christians, Jews and Moslems stood close together in Tbilisi" (Sheets pg)."

Extractions: The Georgian culture has been around for several centuries. This has been masked by the fact that Georgia is a relevantly new country, because it was once part of the USSR. In 1991, Georgia became an independent republic and gained its own identity. Georgia has been closely bound by religion since it was introduced into the area in the 4 th Georgia is a culture that is much like the United States in that the population is composed of nearly 100 different ethnic groups. Of all the ethnic groups, Georgians make up 70% of the total population, which is over five million people. For many years Georgia has been under the control of other countries while still maintaining its unique cultural identity. Georgian culture is heavily influenced by both Asia and Europe. The artistic nature of Georgian culture is best expressed in the architecture that reflects both the Asian and European influence. Georgia is most known for the cupola structure. This dominant Georgian ecclesiastic architecture can be traced to domestic dwellings with circular floor plans that date back to the third or fourth millennium BC. Two major forms of ecclesiastic building developed in Georgia; the central domed structure and the basilica. The Georgians are skilled metal workers with tombs exhibiting fine pieces of bronze, silver, and gold. Ancestors of the Georgians were accomplished in smelting, forging, soldering, stamping, and embossing.

This superbly written book is part ethnography, part geography, and part cookbook. Ms. Goldstein describes the rugged topography and turbulent history of this region that was once a crossroad of trade between Asia and Europe. These cultural influences, along with a healthy variety of food-producing environments, have led to a rich native cuisine."Anthony Dias Blue DESCRIPTION (back to top) According to Georgian legend, God took a supper break while creating the world. He became so involved with his meal that he inadvertently tripped over the high peaks of the Caucasus, spilling his food onto the land below. The land blessed by Heaven's table scraps was Georgia. Nestled in the Caucasus mountain range between the Black and Caspian seas, the Republic of Georgia is as beautiful as it is bountiful. The unique geography of the land, which includes both alpine and subtropical zones, has created an enviable culinary tradition. In

The History Of Georgia A unique georgian Christian culture flourished in this multinational state. and was confirmed as chairman of the Parliament of the republic of georgia. http://members.tripod.com/ggdavid/georgia/history.htm
Extractions: History of Georgia Christianity started to spread in Georgia from the 1st century, and became established as a state religion of Kartli in the 330s and about the same time in West Georgia as well. It meant an orientation toward Rome and Byzantium that would prove a decisive factor in the evolution of the national consciousness and culture. By the mid 400s, 30 bishops were in Kartli. The leader of an anti-Iranian struggle, King of Kartli Vakhtang Gorgasali further strengthened the Kartlian church by making it autocephalic, having secured permission from Constantinopole to elevate the status of the bishop of Mtskheta to that of Catholicos. Christianity destroyed the old Georgian literature and began to create a literature of its own, mostly translations. Georgian writing was first seen in the 5th century. The first examples include inscriptions in the Georgian monastery of the Holy Cross in Palestine, in the Bethlehem desert (Bir-ell-Katt), as well as those in the Sioni Church of Bolnisi, south of Tbilisi. The source of the Georgian script is a controversial problem. Some scholars believe that it appeared long before the Christian epoch, while others relate its appearance to the establishment of the Christian religion. They do not deny the possible existence of a certain original writing in the pre-Christian era. The oldest books translated then were the Gospels and the Old Testament. The Passion of St. Shushanik was written in the 5th century. Another such work by an anonymous author, The Martyrdom of Evstate Mtskheteli is from the 6th century.
