History of Abkhazia


History of Abkhazia

After the war with Georgia in 1992-1993, Abkhazia survived in spite of an immense embargo and blockade imposed by Georgia. Despite having most of its infrastructure destroyed, Abkhazia managed to redevelop its main economic pillars which are tourism and agriculture. Though many efforts were taken to rehabilitate the territory after the war with Georgia, there are still remains of the destruction across the territory. The unsolved conflict with Georgia is a burden for the future development of the territory. Its status as an independent state is internationally recognized only by Nauru, Nicaragua, Russia, Tuvalu, Vanuatu, and Venezuela. Abkhazia highly depends on Russian support, currency and has a similar uncertain political situation as Ossetia or Kosovo. From a travel perspective it is for all intents and purposes an independent territory.
