In 1795, the Persian Empire under Agha Mohammad Khan launched a devastating campaign against the fractured Georgian kingdoms, culminating in the Battle of Krtsanisi outside Tbilisi. This episode explores how internal dynastic rivalries between the Bagrationi branches in Kartli and Kakheti left the region vulnerable to external domination. We examine the final days of King Erekle II, the brutal sack of Tbilisi, and the collapse of centuries-old alliances with Russia that had promised protection but failed to materialize in time. The conversation delves into the personal tragedies of royal family members, the strategic miscalculations of Georgian diplomacy, and the immediate aftermath that saw thousands enslaved or killed. By focusing on this pivotal year, we uncover how a once-unified Christian stronghold in the Caucasus was reduced to tributary states under Qajar rule, setting the stage for eventual Russian annexation decades later. Listeners will encounter specific figures like King Heraclius, Queen Darejan, and Prince David Orbeliani, alongside details of the battle tactics, the destruction of cultural landmarks, and the complex political landscape of late 18th-century Persia. #Krtsanisi #AghaMohammadKhan #ErekleII #Bagrationi #QajarDynasty #TbilisiSack #GeorgiaHistory #CaucasusHistory #KingdomOfKartli #KingdomOfKakheti #RussianEmpire #PersianInvasion #QueenDarejan #DavidOrbeliani #1795Battle #SafavidLegacy #GeorgianRoyalty #FexingoHistory #History Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
