This is my first myTake and I'm bit nervous. I don't want to fail.
Georgia is a country in Europe. Between Russia, Azerbaijan, Armenia and Turkey. Country is "covered" by Caucasus mountains. First king of "united" Georgia was Bagrat III in 4th century AD, but first Georgian king was ruled this territories in 3rd century BC. Georgia's 20% percent is occupied by Russia (Abkhazia and Samachablo). Turkey and Azerbaijan has Georgian territories too. Country was member of Soviet Union. In 1918 Georgia became independent country (Russia acknowledged Georgia as an independent country) but in 3 years, 1921 Russian army invaded in Georgia and "We" became members of Soviet Union. In 1989 (9 April) Georgia became independent again, but Russian army invaded again and killed about 30 people (Most of them were young girls). David IV the builder is the greatest king in Georgia's history. He managed to win was with 45,000 Georgians against 200,000 Turk-Seljuks.

Country has one of the most beautiful Nature. Caucasus mountains are one of the biggest mountains in the world. Best place to visit and see new and quite wild nature. Tusheti and Svaneti are best place to visit. Black Sea is also bordering Georgia, so country has good beaches. I would give my country 8/10 mark in nature.
.
Capital city is Georgia and to be honest, it's one of the worst place of country. Air pollution is one of the worst. Major of city is doing nothing to solve it, but capital city also has a great history and good places to visit. Sameba, Kashueti, Mother of Cartli, Tbilisi Funicular and so on... There're so many things to see in that city!

Georgia is quite good in summer sports. Country is one of the best in Rugby, Nikoloz Basilashvili (Tennis player) is ranked 18th in ATP World ranking, Zaza Pachulia plays in NBA and Goga Bitadze (Also center) will be on this year's draft. Scouts predict him 10-20 draft pick. We're quite bad in Football, but in 1982 Tbilisi's Dinamo became champion of the tournament of Cup of cups. National team is ranked 100th in Coca-Cola world ranking.

Georgia is European country, but we don't use Latin alphabet (unlike 99% of European country). We have our unique and one of the oldest alphabets in the world. It has changed twice. It's unique because it has 33 (Every letter that people use when they talk) letters in it and also, you read how you write. For example if you write book with Georgian letters, you will read as book not like you pronounce in English (Buq).
.
Oldest wine was made in Georgia. 8000 years ago. The main reason why we are unique is that we still use same technique which people used 8000 years ago in Georgia to make wine and we have so good wine. We're country of wine (France is the second, this is the fact).
.
We are christian people here and we have one of the unique creature in Georgia. Cloth of Jesus Christ. Country became Christian in like 330 AD.
.
I know every country is unique and beautiful (Except Russia), but Georgia is one of the underrated country. No one knows about Georgia and when I say that I'm from Georgia, people think I'm from U.S.A.
