Warm and pleasant; Mediterranean-like on Black Sea coast.
Terrain: largely mountainous with Great Caucasus Mountains in the north and Lesser Caucasus Mountains in the south; Kolkhet'is Dablobi (Kolkhida Lowland) opens to the Black Sea in the west; Mtkvari River Basin in the east; good soils in river valley flood plains, foothills of Kolkhida Lowland.
note: strategically located east of the Black Sea; Georgia controls much of the Caucasus Mountains and the routes through them.
