Tbilisi  is the capital and the largest city of Georgia, lying on the banks of the Kura River with a population of approximately 1.5 million people. Founded in the 5th century AD by Vakhtang I Gorgasali, the monarch of the Kingdom of Iberia, Tbilisi since served as the capital of various Georgian kingdoms and republics. Between 1801 and 1917, then being under the rule of the former Russian Empire, Tbilisi was the seat of the Imperial Viceroy, governing both Southern and Northern Caucasus.

Tbilisi Because of its location on the crossroads between Europe and Asia, and its proximity to lucrative east-west trade routes, throughout history Tbilisi was a point of contention between various global powers. The city's location to this day ensures its position as an important transit route for various energy and trade projects. Tbilisi's diverse history is reflected in its architecture, which is a mix of medieval, neoclassical, Beaux Arts, Art Nouveau, Stalinist and Modern structures.

History Georgia has been dominated and invaded by the Greeks, Persians and Romans during the early times. The Arabs invaded the country as well in the 7th century. This proves the diverse culture of the country since it has quite a number of influences. From the 11th to the 13th century, Georgia experienced its “Golden Age of cultural, political and military ascendancy,” following it is the invasion of the Mongols during the 14th century.

History In 1921, Georgia was invaded by the Red Army and then became a part of the Soviet Union. Fifteen years after, they are considered as one of the 15 republics of the Soviet Union. However, they experienced extreme oppression under the leadership of Ioseb Stalin. They have been repressed of their rights and freedom.

History After the break-up of the Soviet Union, Georgia declared its independence in 1991. It became a member of the United Nations shortly a year after. A few years after, in 1995, the Georgian government made amendments in the constitution and held their presidential elections. From then on, Georgia has been exercising its freedom as a democratic country.
