The States of Transcaucasia Transcaucasia is a geopolitical region located on the border of Eastern Europe and Middle East an is also referred to as Transcaucasia. More specifically, the Transcaucasus area spans the southern portion of the Caucasus Mountains and its lowlands, lying between the two continents of Europe and Asia and extending from the southern part of the Greater Caucasus Mountain range and going southerly and then traveling between the Black and Caspian Seas. Herodotus, Greek historian who is known as 'the Father of History' and Strabo, Greek geographer, philosopher, and historian spoke about autochthonous peoples of the Caucasus in their books. In the Middle Ages various peoples, including Scythians, Alani, Huns, Khazars, Arabs, Seljuq Turks, and Mongols settled in Caucasia. These invasions influenced on the culture of the peoples of Transcaucasia. In parallel Middle Eastern influence disseminated the Iranian languages and Islamic religion in Caucasus. Located on the peripheries of Iran, Russia and Turkey, the region has been an arena for political, military, religious, and cultural rivalries and expansionism for centuries. Throughout its history, the region has come under control of various empires, including the Achaemenid, Parthian, Roman, Sassanian, Byzantine, Mongol, Ottoman, successive Iranian (Safavid, Afsharid, Qajar), and Russian Empires, all of which introduced their faiths and cultures. Throughout history, Transcaucasia was usually under the direct rule of the various in-Iran based empires and part of the Iranian world. In the course of the 19th century, Qajar Iran had to irrevocably cede the region (alongside its territories in Dagestan, North Caucasus) as a result of the two Russo-Persian Wars of that century to Imperial Russia. Ancient kingdoms of the region included Armenia, Albania and Iberia, among others. These kingdoms were later incorporated into various Iranian empires, including the Achaemenid Empire, the Parthian Empire, and the Sassanid Empire, during which Zoroastrianism became the dominant religion in the region. However, after the rise of Christianity and conversion of Caucasian kingdoms to the new religion, Zoroastrianism lost its prevalence and only survived because of Persian power and influence still lingering in the region. Thus, Transcaucasia became the area of not only military, but also religious convergence, which often led to bitter conflicts with successive Persian empires (and later Muslim-ruled empires) on the one side and the Roman Empire (and later the Byzantine Empire) on the other side. The Iranian Parthians established and installed several eponymous branches in Transcaucasia, namely the Arsacid dynasty of Armenia, the Arsacid dynasty of Iberia, and the Arsacid Dynasty of Caucasian Albania. In the middle of the 8th century, with the capture of Derbend by the Umayyad armies during the Arab–Khazar wars, most of Transcaucasia became part of the Caliphate and Islam spread throughout the region. Later, the Orthodox Christian Kingdom of Georgia dominated most of Transcaucasia. The region was then conquered by the Seljuk, Mongol, Turkic, Safavid, Ottoman, Afsharid and Qajar dynasties. After two wars in the first half of the 19th century, namely the Russo-Persian War (1804-1813) and the Russo-Persian War (1826-1828), the Russian Empire conquered most of Transcaucasia (and Dagestan in the North Caucasus) from the Iranian Qajar dynasty, severing historic regional ties with Iran. By the Treaty of Gulistan that followed after the 1804-1813 war, Iran was forced to cede modern-day Dagestan, Eastern Georgia, and most of the Azerbaijan Republic to Russia. By the Treaty of Turkmenchay that followed after the 1826-1828 war, Iran lost all of what is modern-day Armenia and the remainder of the contemporary Azerbaijani Republic that remained in Iranian hands. After the 1828-1829 war, the Ottomans ceded Western Georgia (except Adjaria, which was known as Sanjak of Batum), to the Russians. In 1844, what comprises present-day Georgia, Armenia and the Azerbaijan Republic were combined into a single Russian government-general, which was termed a vice-royalty in 1844-1881 and 1905-1917. Following the 1877-78 Russo-Turkish War, Russia annexed Kars, Ardahan, Agri and Batumi from the Ottomans, joined to this unit, and established the province of Kars Oblast as its most southwesterly territory in the Transcaucasia. In 1914, Russia entered World War I in response to Austria-Hungary's declaration of war on Russia's ally Serbia, and fought across multiple fronts while isolated from its Triple Entente allies. In 1916, the Brusilov Offensive of the Russian Army almost completely destroyed the military of Austria-Hungary. However, the already-existing public distrust of the regime was deepened by the rising costs of war, high casualties, and rumors of corruption and treason. All this formed the climate for the Russian Revolution of 1917. The February Revolution forced Nicholas II to abdicate and while he named his brother Grand Duke Michael as the next Emperor. Micheal declined to accept the throne, instead arguing that he could only accept if the people were allowed to vote through a Constituent Assembly for the continuance of the monarchy or a republic. During the absence of an Emperor, a shaky coalition of political parties declared itself the Provisional Government. An alternative socialist establishment existed alongside and wielded considerable power through the democratically elected councils of workers and peasants, called Soviets. The rule of the new authorities only aggravated the crisis in the country, instead of resolving it. Eventually, the October Revolution, led by Bolshevik leader Vladimir Lenin, overthrew the Provisional Government and gave full governing power to the Soviets. It would be the Bolsheviks who would execute Nicholas II, his wife, and their five children in July of 1918, in hopes of destroying the Romanov dynasty forever. Following the October Revolution, a civil war broke out between the anti-Communist White movement, a movement loyal to the Romanov Dynasty, and the new Soviet regime with its Red Army. The war was fought for five years until October of 1922 when the Treaty of Moscow was officially signed, ending the Russian Civil War and dividing the Empire between a second Russian Empire led by Grand Duke Cyril Vladimirovich as Emperor Cyril I and the new Soviet Union. After the fall of the first Russian Empire in 1918 and during the time of the Russian Civil War, the Transcaucasia region was unified into a single political entity twice, as Transcaucasian Democratic Federative Republic from 9 April 1918 to 26 May 1918, and as Transcaucasian Socialist Federative Soviet Republic from 12 March 1922 to 5 December 1936, each time to be dissolved into separate republics Armenia, Azerbaijan and Georgia. After 1936, all of Transcaucasia was divided into separate republics within the Soviet Union, enduring almost 50 years of communist rule within the region. In September 1991 the Soviet Union fell into Civil War as hardline communist elements within the Soviet Union attempted to seize power and end the growing nationalism within the Republics. In the chaos of the early months of the war, Georgia, Azerbaijan and Armenia declared their independence. The Russian Empire under Emperor Paul II choose to intervene in the Soviet Civil War by 1992, eventually leading the end of the war and the end of the Soviet Union. While the Russian Empire consolidated power around territories near the former Soviet Union's capital of Moscow, areas such as Trancaucasia were left relatively alone to pursue their own agendas. Despite efforts in Georgia, Armenia, and Azerbaijan to establish stable, prosperous republic in the post-soviet era of the 1990's the results were less than successful. Political instability, devastated economies, and disagreements between them over territory made the 1990's a turbulent time period as economic collapse a brief wars destroyed the landscape. The near of the decade the republics were on the brink of collapse and failure when the Russian Empire under Emperor Paul II began attempts at stabilizing the area. The Russian Empire's most direct attempts were made in Georgia where, for a brief period, Georgia was once again made apart of the Russian Empire. Unfortunately for the Russian Empire, the annexation of Georgia brought the unwanted attention of two Middle East superpowers of the time: the Scythirian Empire and Ehgoeg. Both powers had signed a treaty agreeing to protect the Middle East from colonization and expansion of non-Middle East nations. Despite attempts at a diplomatic solution, the Russian Empire was given no other choice but to declare war against both nations in attempts at protecting Georgia. Known as the Georgian War, the conflict came to consume not only many Russian soldiers and Georgia volunteers, but also forces allied to the Russian Empire against the Middle East powers (who at the time were being influenced by the growing power of the World Military Dominion). Despite various successes in favor of Russia and here allies, the war took a decisive turn against them when the Caliphate of Paradise (a military juggernaut in the Middle East) entered the war. While scholars today argue that Russia, with the aide of her allies at the time, could have held off against the Middle Eastern powers, at the time political leaders in the Empire were less confident. Furthermore, public opinion was quickly turning against the government over the conflict. In an act of political defiance against the Emperor, the Russian Prime Minister Nicholas Kozintsev entered into secret negotiations, agreeing to an armistice with the Middle Eastern powers. During the Gurandburg Peace Conference that followed, the victorious powers ensured that Georgia was freed from Russia's authority. Not only this, but Russia was forced to make a humiliating admission of fault by taking full responsibility for starting the Georgian War. Russia was forced to retreat back to Europe and Georgia was left to try and rebuild. During the time of the Dominion Wars, Transcaucasia came under temporary occupation at various times and some small fighting occurred though no major battle ever took place. During this time period Azerbaijan Established itself as a Military Republic and, under military control, allied with the Dominion though their involve in the Dominion Wars was limited to trade and supplying weapons for the front. In Georgia Mensheviks established control and built a stable, if fragile, Republic. Democratic forces also established power in Armenia as well, and all three states survived until the end of the Dominion Wars. Following the end of the global conflict of the Dominion Wars, the economies of the Transcaucasian states again began to suffer as global markets changed. In an attempt to stabilize their situation, the three nations of Georgia, Armenia, and Azerbaijan entered into negotiations to discuss the possibility of cooperation in an effort to maintain their respective independence from foreign powers. What resulted from these talks was the signing of the Coalition Charter and the establishment of the Coalition of Transcaucasia. The Coalition was, as easily described, an alliance of the nations of Transcaucasia for the purpose of commerce as well as mutual defense. While the individual nations retained a great deal of autonomy and sovereignty, they agreed to give the Coalition government diplomatic, economic, and military power. This government lasted for a year until Besiki Asatiani, leader of Azerbaijan, attempted a coupe against the government to take over the Coalition and design it. His coupe was however, thwarted by his protege Mikhail Khalilov, Chairman of the Coalition. Khalilov instead took Asatiani's plan and use it to further his own hold on power and transformed the Coalition into the United Dominion. Under the Dominion, Chancellor Khalilov suspended much of the autonomy of the nation-states and instead strengthened the central government's power in the name of security. Modelling his new Dominion after the World Military Dominion, Khalilov consolidated power and, in only a few short years, began funding various Dominion-leaning militant groups in other parts of the world. One such group, calling itself the Tauric Republic, took Crimea from the Russian Empire when it annexed the former Grand Duchy of Draxis. In an attempt to strengthen their position against the Russian Empire, Khalilov launched an invasion of the Northern Caucasus with the aim at reaching the Kerch straits and creating an uninterrupted supply line to Dominion-leaning forces in Crimea. The Russian Empire, under Emperor Ivan VIII intervened, driving Dominion forces back to Transcaucasia and toppling the Khalilov government. In the aftermath of the intervention in the steppes, the Russian Empire provided peacekeeping operations in Transcaucasia. With its Middle Eastern enemies from the Georgian War long since dissolved, the Russian Empire attempted to correct its mistakes of the past by helping to nation build. Referendums were held in Georgia, Armenia, and Azerbaijan to determine the future of these nation-states. In Georgia, a constitutional monarchy was voted for and enacted, bringing the state closer to the Russian Empire diplomatically and politically. In Azerbaijan the vote was a virtual tie, with no clear winner and a sense that the state was on the verge of collapse. However, perhaps the worst results were in Armenia were according to initial results Socialists had won, vowing to create a new soviet system of government. Russian officials, after further investigation, concluded these initial results to be false. According the Russia, massive voter fraud and manipulation had led the Socialists, lead by Nicholas Kozintsev grandson Valiko Kozintsev, to victory. Kozintsev reject this as propaganda against the Socialist cause. In an effort to stabilize the region, Russian officials encouraged the creation of coalition governments in Armenia and Azerbaijan under the frame work of parliamentary republics with the hope that under Russian guidance, opposing political forces could work together and not devolve into civil war. Despite being offer to work with the Armenian coalition government, the Socialists and Kozintsev rejected the idea and established their Confederation of Soviet Socialist Republics in exile. Under Kozintsev leadership, supporters of the socialist cause organized into armed militias and began a guerrilla war against Russian peacekeeping forces to recapture Armenia and other Caucasus territories for themselves, or in their words "the people."

THE KINGDOM OF GEORGIA Posted Image Official Names: Official:The Kingdom of Georgia Conventional Short Form: Georgia Capital: Tbilisi Official Information Links: THE GOVERNMENT The Constitution of Georgia establishes the Kingdom of Georgia as a constitutional monarchy headed by the reigning King of the Royal House of Bagrationi. The government is a Saint Petersburg System (named after Saint Petersburg, Russia) in that it is a parliamentary system where the reigning monarch retains substantial political authority. The Constitution was promulgated a month after Russian forces liberated Georgia, at the request of local Georgian leaders, from pro-Dominionist forces in Transcaucasia. After a national referendum, the people of Georgia voted almost unanimously to restore the monarchy under a Saint Petersburg system of government. The King The King of the Kingdom of Georgia is the head of state and the de jure head of government. According to the Constitution, the King of Georgia is the foundation of Royal Power in the Kingdom of Georgia. The source for which all political authority in government originates, the King is by definition, the point where all laws, policies, and political actions taken by the Kingdom originate and gain authority. By this the King is subject to only two limitations: the King and his consort must both belong to the Georgian Orthodox Church, and he must obey the laws of succession for the Royal House of Bagrationi. Under the constitution the King grants much of its authority to other organs of government therefore creates more limitations to their own power. Specifically, the King grants their legislative authority and power to Parliament which holds the power of the purse as well as the power to declare war. The King also grants much his power as head of government to the Royal Council of Ministers, of whom the Parliament nominates and the King appoints. This power is mostly centralized within the Prime Minister, as de facto leader of the Council. While the Council of Ministers effective acts as a privy council, relaying the wishes of the Parliament and the people to the King in matters of policy, the King grants extensive autonomy to the Council for the purposes of its day-to-day functions. However, while the King grants much of his government authority to Parliament and the Royal Council of Ministers, there are agreed safeguards within the system that allow the King to check both bodies. The King may dismiss any member or the entire body of the Royal Council of Ministers at any time, granted a formal letter outlying reasons why, is delivered to the Parliament. The King also reverse the power to grant or veto acts that pass through the Parliament. A veto however, can be overturned if Parliament unanimously votes to overturn it. The King also retains the power to pass laws through Royal Decree. However, such decrees can only be given when the Parliament is in recess and can be overturned if the Parliament brings up charges against the decree to the Supreme Court. Along with this the King helps to determine the domestic and foreign policy of the Georgian government, resolve problems on issues in immigration and has the power to grant pardons. The King is also Marshal of the Kingdom of Georgia, acting in this title as commander-in-chief status over the Georgian military. Current Ruling King: David Georgevich Bagrationi II Current Queen: Current heirs (In order by birth): -Prince (heir apparent): -Prince: -Princess: King of Georgia's full title:By the Grace of God, mepet mepe (King of Kings), King of United Georgia, King of Georgians, King of Abkhazia, King of Kakheti and Hereti, King of Armenians, Possessor of Shirvan, Shahanshah, Autocrat of all the East and the West, Prince of Iberia, Prince of Tao, Prince of Klarjeti, Kouropalates, Nobilissimus, Sebastos, Caesar, King of Alania, King of Kartli, King of Kakheti, King of Imereti, King of Kartli-Kakheti, and so forth, and so forth, and so forth. The Royal Council of Ministers The Royal Council of Ministers is an advisory or privy council for the King, and makes up the administrative body of the executive. According to the Constitution, the King is the de jure head of Government however, agrees to grant certain executive powers and some autonomy to the Royal Council of Ministers, making it the de facto executive body. Each minister oversees the day-to-day operations of their ministry and its various departments. Depending on the degree of changes, Ministers also have the authority to make policy changes within their minister, though these changes are often reviewed by the King whose reserves the right to veto these changes if necessary. However, to avoid such a situation much of the policy changes are first proposed to the King before implemented. The Royal Council of Ministers is also the direct voice of parliament and thereby, the people, to the King when it comes to gaining the King's support on laws being proposed and debate in parliament. Perhaps the most important minister on the council is the Prime Minister. While the King remains the de jure head of government, most of the day-to-day decision making powers are delegated to the Prime Minister making her or she the de facto head of government. The Prime Minister's primary purpose is to oversee the various ministries and their functions in the name of the King and then publish reports to the King on them from time to time. Considered the most direct minister to the King, the Prime Minister is also requested, from time to time, to come before parliament to answer questions about policy when they arise. Ministers of the Council are nominated by parliament and then appointed by the King. The term of office for each member of the council runs the same length, and is concurrent with the term of office for parliament. Members may appoint for consecutive terms without limit. Each Ministry is created by the King and they also have the power and authority to create, combine, or disband ministries as deemed necessary. However, it is often customary for these actions to be taken from advice given to the King by the Prime Minister. Once appointed, Minister's have the authority to nominate subordinate employees for their Ministry. Lists of these candidates must be submitted to the King for final approval.

The powers of parliament are granted by the King of Georgia, who formally grants these powers to the chamber in a special session called shortly after each new Emperor's coronation. This grant of power is considered binding between the people and the King until the King's death. Parliament is given the power to propose, debate, and vote on laws. Once passed by both chambers, laws are then presented to the King who may either sign them or veto them. If the law is vetoed, parliament must unanimously pass it once more for the veto to be over-ridden and the bill become a law. Parliament also has the power to ratify treaties as well as the power over taxation and government spending. Parliament also has the power to question any minister of government as well as present to the King a vote of no confidence against a Minister as a request to have that minister removed.

At plenary sessions, the Supreme Court studies the judicial decisions of lower courts on various topics and adopts resolutions, which establish recommendations on the interpretation of provisions of law for lower courts for uniform application.

People's Red Guard Posted Image THe People's Red Guard is a socialist paramilitary group whose goal is to remove Russian influence from Transcaucasia, destroy the illegitimate governments of the Transcaucasian Transitional Authority and the Kingdom of Georgia, and create a "people's republic" encompassing all of Transcaucasia. The PRG emerged shortly after the referendum held in Armenia to determine its future political status. During the vote, Armenians were given the choice of Parliamentary Republicanism which was supported by a faction of Armenians close to the Russian Empire or Socialist Councilism which was supported by a faction of socialists led by Viktor Kozintsev. Though the original vote count gave socialists the win, it was untested by the Republicans and eventually the Russians who determined voting fraud had occurred. Protesting the election, the socialists formed the government in exile in Stepanakert, opposing the Republican coalition government formed in Armenia's capital. Declared terrorists, Russian peacekeeping forces invaded Stepanakert hoping to capital Kozintsev and other leading socialists and communist but they escaped. Falling the fall of Stepanakert, the socialists and communists united into the People's Red Guard. An underground group, the PRG fights a war against what they see as an occupation by the Russian Empire and looks to use guerrilla and terrorist tactics in hopes of liberating not only Armenia but the whole of the Transcaucasian region.
