Standing with the people of Georgia against Russian meddling.

[Salome Zourabichvili @Zourabichvili_S]

As the last independent institution, I cannot recognize these elections - it would legitimize Russia’s takeover of Georgia. Our ancestors endured too much for us to surrender our European future.

This seems to be a very useful compendium and the introduction is very informative. But, as it's often the case, the term "medieval" means pre-Mongol in this book. Post-Mongol developments are not covered, unfortunately.
