  • With all respect the flag remindes the flag of Armenian Cilician kingdom!

  • @unknown198523

    With all respect Georgians used this flag from 5th Century ,which for so long time was abolished.

    Cilician Kingdom was founded in XI Century,so if it reminds i can understand you.

    for Englishman it also looks like England Flag,see no problem.

  • In the XIII - XIV centuries the Georgians enjoyed a privileged condition above the other Christians. This was especially so after glorious years of King David and Queen Tamar, and during the dynasty of the Mameluk Sultans, who often were originally from Georgia.

  • James de Vitry wrote that : while most Christians entered Jerusalem with difficulty and lived a most tenuous existence, the Georgians were able to move about freely. In fact, when Georgian pilgrims arrived they entered the city with flags unfurled and held high. They were not required to pay the tax which was imposed upon other Christians. (Iacobus de Vitriaco, Historia Ierosolymitana seu Orientalis, c. LXXIX (De Sandoli, Itinera, III, 352-353).

  • Very nice and informative, but you forgot to mention the English adopted the St.George flag from you guys, if I'm not wrong, around the time of the Crusades.

  • Sorry Crusaders, sorry England, sorry "researchers".. Oh I forgot "influential" Russians and Armenians too! Enlightening everyone that Georgians "adopted" Crusaders flag or "want to be " Crusaders.

    And everyone please don't be ashamed of not knowing these before, what you discover in this video, don't be ashamed , Georgia is not an easy or quick subject to handle. Everyone can not be a professor about Georgia

see all
