Georgians are not Russians, Turks or Persians, nor do they have any ethnic connection with other people. Georgian language (Kartuli) is in its own language group, completely unrelated to Indo-European, Semitic or other languages. Georgians have been embroiled in struggles against the world's biggest empires (Roman, Arab, Mongol, Persian, Ottoman, Russian, etc) for centuries. This little country was invaded many times and destroyed as many. However, Georgians have managed to preserve their cultural and traditional identity for thousands of years. The countryside is covered with ancient towered fortifications, many of which house ancient churches (including one of the oldest in Christendom) and monasteries.

  • You should make video who are chechens we are vaynakh

  • @MrChechen4life I would watch that video with pleasure, but I think as a Chechen you will make it better than me.

  • I must say I expected a little bit more from this video. I am very interested in knowing more about Georgia, but basically, all I have learnt today is that the Georgians are Georgian. But hey, it's better than nothing ;)

  • @AnDivroer Thanks for your comment. Georgians are aboriginal people of Caucasus region, they are very unique, and so you’ve got the idea of this video correctly: Georgians are Georgians.

    You can easily research information about Georgia and Georgians, if you would like.

  • I always wondered who the Georgians were. They are one people I don't hear about.

  • @newfful I am glad to hear that you are interested. You MUST (!) visit Georgia, because for someone like you who is interested in cultures and history, Georgia will be absolutely fantastic and life-changing experience! It’s not just another country or culture or civilization, it’s another world, absolutely unique and unknown world!

  • Georgian men only know how to wear beautiful clothes, they can't fight at all. They offer their mustached ladies to whoever comes as conquerers.(mongols, arabs, turks,russians) As a result georgians are in fact a little bit of everything mentioned above, but incredibly ladies still have their mustaches..

  • @zviadambroladze thats what i told you (you are not the only one that feels this way)

  • @cccpninakias It's not about I am the only one or not. It's about how good is to feel georgian. And it does not really matter are you ethnic georgian, or not. If you feel yoursef georgian, you are georgian! We welcome everyone here. :)

  • @zviadambroladze you r not the only one bro :)

  • I'm 100% Georgian and I'm proud of it! Thank's God I was born in Georgia and nowhere else!!! 

  • @Dayforlol Hey, thanks for that song.

    But the song I was looking for was

    "Shatilis Asulo", which I found in the

    videos related to the song you gave.

    I loved both the songs and they are

    going in my favourites list. : )

  • @utuberocks34342135 Type on youtube : The shin Lalebi

  • What is the name of the song starting

    from 2:41? Really inspiring song I must

    say, although I don't understand Kartuli. : (
