Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: The legal history of Georgia, located at the crossroads of Eastern Europe and Western Asia, reflects its unique cultural, political, and social evolution. The development of the Georgian legal system has been influenced by various factors, including the ancient kingdoms of the region, the Christianization of Georgia, foreign invasions, and the impact of modern legal frameworks. Here’s an overview of the historical development of the Georgian legal systems: Ancient Period and early Kingdoms (3rd century BC - 4th century AD): The earliest legal practices in Georgia can be traced back to the ancient kingdoms of Colchis and Iberia. These regions had their own tribal customs and norms governing social and legal relations. Local customary laws prevailed, focusing on family and property law.
