The Georgian Empire is an ancient human realm located in the upper levels of the underground world, a prideful state that claims to be the direct and legitimate continuation of a now mostly mythical empire from the long lost surface world. Once a mighty realm that spanned many caverns and passages and underholds, it has in more recent times been reduced by war and misadventure mostly to its capital, the grand cavern city of Zenopolis, and its immediate environs. Though the Athanasian Dynasty has at least for now halted the empire's decline and undone some of the grievous damage of the previous period of near-anarchy, it seems unlikely at least for now that any return to the heady days of Georgia's former might is around the corner.

==The Empire==

The Georgian Empire is one of the oldest human powers in the underground world, claiming to be the direct continuation of a now mostly mythical polity on the surface of the same name. Presently it's centered around its capital, the grand cavern city of Zenopolis, and its immediate environs. It also serves as a religions center for the ancient Old Orthodox Church. Georgia was once one of the most powerful states within the underground, but over the last few centuries its powers have been much diminished and what was once a mighty empire that spanned a number of caverns and holds has drawn back or been pushed back into the territory around its capital.
