 Georgia is located in the Caucasus region of Eurasia, at the juncture of Eastern Europe and Western Asia. It is bounded to the north by Russia, to the south by Armenia and Turkey, to the west by the Black Sea and to the east by Azerbaijan.After Armenia, Georgia is the second country to have adopted Christianity as its official religion – already in the 4th century. For centuries it has therefore long had close ties to Russia and other Greek Orthodox countries. During the 1990’s, Georgia suffered from economic crisis and civil unrest like many other post-communist countries. After the bloodless Rose Revolution, however, government established efficient institutions, passed economic reforms and led the country into the fastest economic growth period in its history. Due to its climate and topography, Georgia’s agriculture and tourism industries remain key economic sectors. Foreign direct investment is high. Media The media is generally uncensored, but there remain self-censorship issues. Television reaches around 85% of Georgians. Newspapers may not be as important a source of information for most as television, but there are still some 200 privately-owned newspapers. Only about 22% of Georgians have Internet access, but this number is steadily rising. If you’re interested in the Georgian marketplace, feel free to contact us at your convenience.
