Georgia


"The Kapanadze's originally came from Georgia. A small country on the edge of Europe, which used to be part of the Soviet Union. When this huge Russian empire fell apart, Georgia became independent. It is somewhat ironic that the worst tyrant of the Soviet Union, Stalin, who murdered countless millions of people all over both Russia and its many smaller vassals, actually came from Georgia and wasn't Russian at all."




Georgia is a sovereign state in the Caucasus region of Eurasia. Located at the crossroads of Western Asia and Eastern Europe it is bounded to the west by the Black Sea, to the north by Russia, to the southwest by Turkey, to the south by Armenia, and to the southeast by Azerbaijan. Georgia covers a territory of 69,700 km² and its population is almost 4.7 million.
