Kingdom of Iberiaball is an ancient Georgian countryball who was established by the great King Parnavaz back in 301 BC. Actually, Iberia is a hellenized version of its Persian (Virshn) and Armenian (Virk) names, but its native name is Kartli. Friends might include its big sibling Colchisball, also friend with Pontusball, Armeniaball and Caucasian Albaniaball. Since it was between SPQRball and Parthiaball, it had to make alliances with both of them, depends on who was stronger. Later it was frenemies with Byzantiumball and DEFINITELY an enemy to Sassanidball.
History
It was born as a 2ball, territories of Iberiaball were conquered by Achaemenidball for a long time, but Alexander helped to end Persian reign. King Parnavaz was the first king who united all Iberian territories in battle near Ardahanball back in 301 BCE. Since then Iberiaball became a strong kingdom with great culture and army. Sadly it became weak and even lost some of its clay to Ancient Armeniaball. But in 326 CE, thanks to St. Nino, it became a Christian and new religion made it stronk again! It reconquered its lost territories and had interesting religious life, which only enriched its unique culture. It wrote 2 historical books "Conversion of Kartli" and "The Georgian Chronicles" (Or on the native language "Moktsevay Kartlisay" and "Kartlis Tskhovreba") which are our main sources about his history. Later in 479 CE, great king Vakhtang Gorgasali built a new capital, the famous Tbilisiball which became a new cultural centre of the kingdom. Too sad that less than a century, in 532 CE, it was killed off by Sassanidball.
Today, most of Iberiaball's territories are owned by its rightful descendant Georgiaball and Turkeyball. The minor parts are also in Armeniaball and Russiaball.
