That is a fanon site, nothing more. You would need critical third party source material to contribute to Wikipedia. Anyone can set up a webpage dedicated to this or that, but unless they have verifiable credentials it’s meaningless. No creditable journalist would cite the page you listed as a "source".

If there is a critical third party source material you may offer, that can be easily scrutinized, then you can and should add the information. If not, then the whole argument is meaningless really.

Look, I don't personally care one way or the other on the matter of who is or is not the most legitimate heir to Georgia. I'm just saying that everyone should take any claims with a grain of salt, and an open critical review of sources is a must. Is there not a newspaper article you may point to? The fanon site doesnt list any sources that I can see.

Unfortunately all newspaper articles are in Georgian, so it is hard to use them as source.
Dear keystone if you would really interested in Georgian royalty I could point to some websites (english), but as you said that you really do not care... so it seems useless...

Thank you anyway

Hey, I didn't say I wasn't interested, just that I do not have a particular opinion one way or the other on who should or shouldnt be king. Ive been reading somewhat on the Georgia history, very interesting indeedy. Anywhose, you should post linkies to those newpaper stories. Prehaps someone would translate them for the forums so that the community may have more information all the way around.

Greetings! It's my understanding that most monarchist supporters in Georgia are now supporting Prince Nugzar as he has the strongest claim. What is the on-the-ground perspective within Georgia?

Benjamin · #**245** 09-21-2010, 06:56 PM

Maia Bagrationi-Gruzinski, youngest daughter of Prince Nugzar, works as an occupational therapist.

In other news, Prince David Bagrationi-Mukhranski and Princess Anna Bagrationi-Gruzinski are apparently not divorced.

Al_bina · #**247** 09-21-2010, 07:28 PM

That is an interesting news. Has the couple sorted out their differences and decided to preserve the union?
Princess Maia looks nice.

Benjamin · #**248** 09-21-2010, 07:50 PM

Dear Al bina,

The information was posted on another forum by someone who has good connections, but, unfortunately, the only information given was that the couple hasn't divorced.

Of course this could mean several things: (1) they have reconciled, (2) they are estranged but still married, (3) they are legally separated, (4) they are in the process of obtaining a divorce.

Sorry that I cannot be of more help...I am curious as to the particulars myself.

Hey this may not be the right place but since it deals somewhat with the Bagration dynasty. Does anyone have any information of Princess Tamara Bagration of Imeretinsky and her descendants? I got some information about her and her descendants but as always could use more.

Thanks for interesting articles!

Prince Juan appears to have a bohemian air about him. Surprisingly, he is not a brunette.

My pleasure Al bina!

Also, thank you very much for your kind New Year wishes. I hope that 2011 holds much happiness and many blessings for you and yours as well!

In other Bagrationi news, an apparently reconciled Prince David and Princess Anna (looking as beautiful as ever) recently made a tour of Western Europe. Very glad to see that they are still together; the couple will be celebrating their second anniversary next month.

Following are two pictures from this trip:

Thanks for the updates!
It is great news, indeed. They make a good-looking couple. Princess Anna is stunning.

Katrianna · #**255** 01-10-2011, 11:50 PM

What great news for the New Year, I'm very happy they're still together. Thank you for the pictures and video Benjamin.

It would be great if Prince David would crack a smile once in a while...

There seems to be so much bunkum coming from so-called Georgian Royalists. There are those who slate the claims made by the Moukhrani branch of the Bagrationi Dynasty and yes, they are a line long distanced from "the throne". But the Gruzinsky line WILL DIE OUT IN 20 YEARS. Period. End of. The only option and rightful heirs are then the Moukhrani Line.

Monarchies are not like X-Factor. You don't get to choose. There are rules that exist governing them. David and Anna are still married, hopefully Anna will hurry up and get pregnant - with a son - then everyone can relax! The Moukhrani are recognised by the government of Georgia, the heiress of the Gruzinsky is married to the head of the Moukhrani family and even the Patriach supports his claim... so the people castigating him aren't monarchists, they are fantasists!
