GEORGIA !


I'm a little further on in my support of Georgia, in Russia. I wonder if I get points for 'blogging' it?
What a fascinating country, to be sure!
It's located on the Black Sea ( it looks darker at night) and its motto is 'Strength in Unity' (but it's independent from Russia).
They speak Georgian in Georgia, have lots of mountains (The Greater Caucasus Mountain Ranges) and have the deepest known cave in the world! (Voronya Cave).
Discovered in 1960 its exploration has set a world record for Alexandre Klimchouk, who explored the cave to a depth of -2190 meters!!
Besides this Georgia is one of the fastest growing economies in Eastern Europe.
The World Bank dubbed Georgia "the number one economic reformer in the world" because it had, in one year, improved from rank 112th to 18th.
Not a bad little country to be supporting!
