All About Georgia
Georgia is located on the southern slopes of the Caucasus mountains, which form a natural border with the northern Caucasian republics of the Russian Federation. Covering approximately 27,000 square miles (69,900 square kilometers), the country stretches along the Greater Caucasus ridge, bordered by the Black Sea to the west, the Armenian and Turkish highlands to the south, and Azerbaijan to the east. The topography is diverse. The northern region is characterized by high mountains and while the central and southern parts are mountainous it is much lower and covered with alpine fields and forests. In the east, all of the rivers join Mtkvari (Kura) to form the Caspian basin, while in the west the rivers Rioni and Enguri are the largest pour into the Black Sea.
The population was estimated at between five and five and a half million in 2000, but is uncertain due to massive and uncountable migration. Just over half the population lives in urban areas, of which 1.6 million are in Tbilisi. Ethnic Georgians make up the vast majority of the population in most regions, but there are Armenian settlements in the south and Azeri settlements in the southeast, respectively.
The majority language is Georgian, which belongs to the Kartvelian (South Caucasian) language group. However, some subgroups speak other languages in the same language group. The literary language comes from the Kartlian dialect spoken in the historically dominant eastern kingdom of Kartli. Georgian is the only Kartvelian language written and taught and the literary language used by all Georgians.
The competing influence of Asian and western cultures is most clearly expressed in Byzantine and Persian influences. Another overlap is between Christian and pagan, which has had a much weaker influence than neighboring Muslim patterns. Today, most cultural symbolism reflects a mythological interpretation of tradition influenced by self-perception as belonging to European, Christian contemporary society.
The settlements are dominated by a church built on a nearby hill, though not in the centre. However, many churches were demolished or converted into warehouses during the Soviet period. Newly built churches are often weak copies of old examples, primitive expressions of a declining tradition. Little remains of the medieval structure of small urban settlements surrounded by a fortress wall.
Georgia is a presidential republic. Although ministers are formally headed by the minister of state, the president is also the head of the executive branch. The unicameral parliament (consisting of 225 members) is elected by a mixed majority-proportional system. The president’s Citizens’ Union of Georgia won the last parliamentary election. The other two parties in the parliament are the Industrialists’ Union and the Georgia’s Resurrection Union.
The state welfare system is inefficient and has few resources. Pensions provide only one-fifth of the subsistence minimum, are poorly targeted and cover too many beneficiaries. Most of the aid goes to IDPs from Abkhazia. A number of international and intergovernmental organizations are working to improve the welfare system.
