(K): Georgians are very much 'Russians'.  Any newly-formed 'states' after
the breakup of the Soviet Union did not make the inhabitants of these
states any less 'Russian' - just sovereign.  They were born in the USSR, 
they speak Russian, and they eat bortsch.  That's as Russian as anyone gets.

Engishmen and Spaniards have nothing in common - except their invasion of 
Iraq alongside the damnable U.S. invader.
