Georgia (Georgian: საქართველო, Sakartvelo) is a country located in the Caucasus region of Eurasia, south of the Greater Caucasus mountain range, the traditional boundary of Europe. As such it is located in Asia.

Georgia is a secular unitary semi-presidential republic. It is currently a member of the United Nations, the Council of Europe, the Commonwealth of Independent States, the World Trade Organization and the Organization of the Black Sea Economic Cooperation.
