Each culture is defined by unique characteristics, whether they are vague ideas and values or specific traditions and practices, and understanding the relationship between these can help you glean key elements of any given culture.

This video discusses ქართველობა \"Kartveloba\"--the broad term for Georgian culture. We have done our best to explain the different elements and components of Georgian culture. The information in this video comes from a variety of sources ranging from dozens of semi-structured interviews conducted with Georgians of various ages and from multiple regions of Georgia to using our own knowledge of Georgian politics. This multi-pronged approach will hopefully give you a rounded understanding of Georgian culture.
