| | Some national and ethnic problems in Georgia (1918-1922) - Avtandil Menteshashvili |
 | | The tsarist government impudently violated the territorial integrity of Georgia, in particular, Abkhazia, by isolating the area of Gagra climatic station from Sukhumi district and formally joining it to Sochi district of the Black Sea "gubernia", (*2) pursuant to the Emperor's order of 25 December, 1904. |
 | | The Kuban government and Volunteer Army representatives while reasoning why Gagra district ought to be annexed, stated that "the whole district was built owing to the efforts of Prince of Oldenburg, and about 10,000,000 roubles of the old currency were spent only on Gagra (*29). |
 | | And here is the Gagra fortress closing the Gagra Defile from the north, that Defile being the only accessible passage suitable for movement of military forces for Georgia. |
