Georgia stands as one of the most beautiful countries in the world in terms of its physical geography. Unfortunately, it also happens to be at the geographic crossroads of so many different empires throughout history! This means that it has been invaded and conquered more times than almost any other country. But in each of those occasions, Georgia has persevered and risen back up to become an independent country. So why has Georgia been invaded so much and what does this mean for its current outlook at Russia continues to apply pressure to it.
In this video, I cover the incredible physical geography of Georgia (and just how gorgeous it is!), its deep history of being invaded and conquered, and then its current issues with Russia and how that might play out in the future.
