Here are some stories about Georgians: Georgians have their own language family (like Indo-European language family and Afro-Asiatic language family): It is Kartvelian language family (or South Caucasian language family). This family has 4 languages: Kartuli (Georgian), Mingrelian, Lazic and Svan languages. This language family is older, than Indo-European and as old as Afro-Asiatic. Georgian language has 3 Alphabets: Asomtavruli, Nuskhuri, Mkhedruli. Kartvelian peoples (Georgian people) was formed by the assimilation of 2 anrchaeogenetic linages: Caucasus Hunter-gatherers (J2a haplogroup) and Anatolian Farmers (G2a haplogroup). Georgian's relative peoples were: Minoan Cretans, Pelasgians, Sumerians, Hurrians and Hattic peoples. The First Georgian tribal states appeared from 15th century BC, these were: Diaeuhi, Colchis and many others. In Urartu, there were 2 major Georgian tribes: Mushki and Colchians. In Nairi confederation, Georgian state Tao (Diaokhi, Diaeuhi) was the central power. Georgians (Kingdom of Iberia / Kingdom of Kartli) became Christian officially in 326 AD. Then in the 8th century great war started with the Muslim world and we faught hundreds of great wars against them for 1000 years, until we became part of Russia in the 19th century. Russian Geographer about Georgians: "Europe, and especially Russia, has not yet realized how important historical mission Georgia has fulfilled in the face of European Christianity, through its centuries-long suffering, its devotional battles. The Georgian nation is a truly crusader nation. In a bloody war against the Muslims, this nation has not lost a sword for more than a thousand years, and if the Christian cross had not been embroidered on the clothes of many of them, it would have been embroidered in the heart of every Georgian. Thus, Georgia became a stronghold of Christianity for Europe, receiving the first and most terrible blows. This little ally of Europe has done a great historical service to the security of the continent. In spite of everything, this nation has retained its beauty, language, customs, traditions and of course, faith. The great Islamic states of the East have repeatedly turned their energy and fanaticism to the unshakable chest of little Georgia, and although their claws still reached the Caucasian peoples of northern Caucasus and managed to convert most of them to Islam, the Georgians themselves remained Christians and did not convert to Islam. The crosses of the temples of Christian Georgia were rising higher and higher, hiding in the middle, fortifying themselves stronger in the mountains, but still they continued to shine. "And still the Islamic Golden Crescent remained at the foot of the Georgian temples, but it was always proudly overlooked by the Christian cross." "Crusader Nation" - from the book by Russian geographer Yevgeny Markov - "Essays on the Caucasus". “If not Tbilisi, there might be standing a mosque in stead of church in Vienna, as Jalal Ad-Dins, Genghis Khans and other Eastern Sultans and Shahs were crashed exactly on Tbilisi Citadel. Tbilisi stood, as European fortress from where enemies of the whole Christianity could only reach Europe weakened and emptied from blood.” Tbilisi has fallen a hundred times and it is amazing !!! Resurrected for the hundredth time! The conquering invaders - the armies of Rome and Byzantium, the Arabs, the Persians and the Turks, the Mongols or any other barbarian tribes - were destroying the capital and it would rise again from the ashes as a buffer that would slow down, weaken the mightiest darts! "This is how Tbilisi fought, this is how it was beaten, even for Vienna, even for Western Europe ... Even after Giorgi Saakadze - this People's Greatest Duke, under the command of 300 Aragvians, who guarded the gates of Georgia like lions, until they were exalted by the shout of the barbarians - Allahu Akbar! ..." Karl Hugo Huppert (1902-1982). William Allen about Georgians "There is one interesting element in the character of Georgians - individualistic irresponsibility, which is reminiscent of the national character of the Spaniards and Irish, and which can also be called aesthetic irresponsibility. This people sometimes were under the influence of the foreign powers domination, but they did not take it seriously, and after the decline of that power, they retained their former character. It would not be right to say that they did not oppose such domination. They often had furious resistance, but it was the resistance of a living organism and not a struggle for any idea. The history of Georgia, like that of Spain and Ireland, shows that here the nation was regarded as the highest sanctity and not this or that principle or religion. And if any of these were involved in a religious war, we find that the reason for the struggle for the faith was a national (racial and cultural) interest. In this "aesthetic irresponsibility" of Georgians lies their national charm. And the secret of their survival as a strictly individualistic nation. "In Georgians, both in the people and in individuals, a well-developed intellect and a clear, curious mind go hand in hand with the immorality and indomitability of primitive man." William Edward David Allen (1901-1973) - English historian, Kartvelologist. "History of the Georgian people"; The White race is called "Caucasian race" in the name of Georgians «Caucasian variety. I have taken the name of this variety from Mount Caucasus, both because its neighborhood, and especially its southern slope, produces the most beautiful race of men, I mean the Georgian; ... The Georgians belong to the most beautiful nations in the world. Everywhere, at any place, there can be seen tall men and slender women with noble faces, attractive features and large beautiful eyes........., Georgians are considered to be among the bravest and the most honest nations in the world; like all other Caucasian nations, they are also hospitable and reliable, as reliable, as their sabers are, and as swift and flexible, as their stallions, courageous in warfare and kind and soft-hearted at their homes. These people produces the most beautiful form of the skull, from which, as from a mean and primeval type, the others diverge... Besides, it is white in color, which we may fairly assume to be the primitive color of mankind and because ... in that region, if anywhere, it seems we ought with the greatest probability to place the autochthones of mankind.» Johann Friedrich Blumenbach (1752-1840) The German anthropologist, physician, naturalist, physiologist, historian and bibliographer, Johann Friedrich Blumenbach is generally regarded as the founder of physical and scientific anthropology. He first used the word ”race” in 1775 to classify humans into five divisions: Caucasian, Mongolian, Ethiopian, American, and Malay.
Chakrulo was one of 29 musical compositions included on the Voyager Golden Records that were sent into space on Voyager 2 on 20 August 1977 and Voyager 1 on 5 September 1977.
the song is composed of two different folk songs/poems. the first half is about a duke who oppressed people. the second half is an old pre-battle song, which is recognized by UNESCO, as an Intangible Heritage masterpiece. You were right in some parts, as in Georgia was always fighting for its existence and struggling to be seen by rest of the world, which continues to the present day. Georgian regions have very different singing motives, many of them are so old, that they predate the Christianization of Georgia, which occurred in the 4th century. Thanks for the video!
To get the context of everything, I want to explain things: That video was recorded in August 2008 on a Festival in Estonia. That's why there are Estonian flags. Also it was recorder during the August war in 2008 which was started by Russia invading Georgia. Chakrulo was among the songs which were sent to the space by Voyager 2 mission. Thanks for the video.
This song, although quite militant, is not military and certainly not religious, it is a drinking song and today, if 3 Georgians who can sing (and almost all Georgians can sing) gather at the table, this song will be performed. In 2001, the song as an example of Georgian choral (polyphonic) singing was included in the List of Masterpieces of the Oral and Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity by UNESCO, and even earlier the song was recorded on the Voyager gold record and sent along with 26 other compositions on the Voyager 2 automatic interplanetary station on August 20, 1977. Estonia, like Georgia, was part of the Soviet Union and they both tried to break free from the chains of Russia, and this video was recorded in 2008, when Russia again attacked Georgia and took away territories, and the Estonian brothers supported it.
@@queenofesc7342 Joseph Stalin, Lavrentiy Beria and Sergo Orjonikidze were Georgians. From 1698 to 1917 there were 380 Georgian generals in the Russian Empire. In 1917, there were 21 Georgian generals in the transitional government, and 126 Georgian generals in the Soviet Union. This Georgian commander assisted the Russian Empire in hundreds of battles, as well as thousands of Georgian officers and hundreds of thousands of Georgian privates. The Russian Empire was saved from Napoleon by the Georgian general Peter Bagration (whom Napoleon called the most worthy opponent among the Russian generals of that time). For this merit, the Russian emperor erected a monument to Bagration in the Borodino Valley. Stalin and Beria were also among the 126 Georgian generals of the Soviet Union who created the Russian space program, the atomic bomb, atomic energy (gave the Soviet Union complete energy independence), fully industrialized all 15 republics of the Soviet Union, put an end to hunger strikes that took place every 10 years in most parts of the territory of Russia and the Soviet Union as a whole. They created a military, scientific, economic base, the strongest intelligence and special services such as the KGB, and turned the Soviet Union into a superpower that was one of the rulers of the bipolar world along with the USA, Russia and the Russian people still enjoy their power to this day. The Russians were saved along with 124 other Georgian generals from Hitler's invasion and enslavement (more than 300 thousand Georgian privates also died in World War II). Every fifth person from Georgia was drafted to the front of World War II - 700 thousand Georgians out of 3.5 million residents of the Soviet Republic of Georgia. About every second person did not return home. 300,000 Georgian soldiers died in battle defending their homeland. In total, during the existence of the USSR (1922-1991), the title of Hero of the Soviet Union was awarded to 12,777 people (for special military, scientific, entrepreneurial and sports merits). The title was awarded to 95 women. A total of 1,038 ethnically Georgian citizens of the Soviet Union received the title of Hero of the Soviet Union. This means that every tenth hero in the Soviet Union was an ethnic Georgian. Georgians received the title of heroes 5 times more often than representatives of other Soviet ethnic groups.
All this is very nice, however no one defends the minority languages from the merciless attack of the majority and powerful languages. We are impassive spectators of the cultural genocides that are being carried out for the sake of a misunderstood universality. Currently the native languages in Europe are attacked without mercy, and their fewer and fewer speakers are accused of being sectarian, supremacist, weirdos... When all of them have been exterminated and only the languages defended by the centralist governments are spoken, we will wonder how they could have such a crime to happen. But it will be too late.
