The Democratic Republic of Georgia (DRG;
Georgian: საქართველოს დემოკრატიული რესპუბლიკა, Sakartvelos Demokratiuli Respublika), 1918–1921, was the first modern establishment of a Republic of
Georgia. The DRG was created after the collapse of the
Russian Empire that began with the
Russian Revolution of 1917. Its established borders were with
Russia and the
Mountainous Republic of the Northern Caucasus in the north,
Ottoman Empire,
Democratic Republic of Armenia, and
Azerbaijan in the south. It had a total land area of roughly 107,600 km² (by comparison, the total area of today's
Georgia is 69,700 km²), and a population of 2.5 million.
