Hi, I would like to learn more about the country of Georgia . 
 Hi, prior to 1995 Georgia was known as the Republic of Georgia. 
 Can you tell me more about their History? 
 Of course, Shevardnadze was officially elected as President of Georgia in 1995. 
 Has he been President since ? Is there more history? 
 He has not, in 2004 Mikheil Saakashvili was elected President. 
 And what is their Economy like? 
 Georgia's economy was within the Soviet model of command economy for much of the 20th century; however, since the fall fo the USSR in 1991 it transitioned to a free market economy. 
 I hadn't thought about how the fall of the USSR would affect them. Is there anything else you can tell me ? 
 Yes, there is, before Georgia became a major center for textile goods, it was an unindustrialized periphery of the USSR. 
 Before I end is there any other fact you would like to tell me? 
 Yes, a fun fact is that at least 1 million emigrants from Georgia legally or illegally resides in Russia currently. 
 Oh that is very interesting and strange .Thanks so much 
 You're welcome.
