A brief history of Georgia
In classical times, Georgia was made up of two kingdoms: Colchis in the west and Kartli in the east and south. In the 4th century, it became the second country to adopt Christianity, when King Mirian and Queen Nana of Kartli were converted to the faith by St Nino. In the 5th century, Colchis forged relations with the Byzantine Empire, while Kartli came under Persian control. King Vakhtang Gorgasali (447–502), considered the father of the Georgian nation, forced the Persians out for a time, moving the capital from Mtskheta to Tbilisi, but the conquerors came again, this time in the form of the Arabs in 654, and then the Turks in the 11th century.
