The History of Georgia

The sea, mountains, desert, plain - this is the landscape of Georgia. Diverse is the nature of Georgians, defined by these contrasts. The history counting five thousand years and Christianity of fifteen hundred years reveals why Georgian nation is so unique. Georgian alphabet is one of the few existing in the modern world. The oldest writings in Georgian language is easily read and understood by modern Georgians without any translation (almost unprecedented). Throughout centuries the history of Georgian state has evolved, altered the boundaries, extended and reduced on its original territory.
