Georgia celebrated the birth anniversary of the well-known public figure Ilia Chavchavadze on November 8. He is the founding father of Georgia. In his memory, the chairman of the Parliament of Georgia, “Shalva Papuashvili”, organized an event in which a special Elfer played Iliaoba.
Ilia Chavchavadze, the defining soul of modern Georgia, was born on November 8, 1837, in Kvareli, Georgia. It is not a coincidence that today, Georgia is waiting for the European Commission’s assessment of its European future.
Prince Ilia was also a Georgian journalist, publisher, writer and poet. He played a massive role in reviving Georgian nationalism during the second half of the 19th century. He ensured the survival of the Georgian language, literature, and culture during the last decades of Tsarist rule.
Chavchavadze was killed in Tsitsamuri, near Mtskheta, by a gang of assassins on September 12, 1907. Details of his murder are still a matter of debate.
Shalva Papuashvili believes that on the birthday of Ilia Martali, one of the most prominent defenders and continuers of Georgian’s European path, our homeland will receive a worthy response, dignified and deserved, as a co-creator of European civilization, as a nation with the most affluent culture and traditions, as a unique phenomenon that emerged at the crossroads of Europe and Asia; and above all, as a name The beak, which one is the main one The value is the person.
The re-imagining of the statehood is the merit of Elijah and his glorious contemporaries, but Elijah’s enthusiasm is immeasurable. He is equally priceless, and the Holy Blood seals his devotion.
Among those Georgian compatriots who sacrificed their lives for our self-sufficiency and freedom, Ilia Nishansvetia, who returned the lost homeland to the nation, also poured the love of the country into the heart of each Georgian.
