The National Academy of Sciences of Georgia (previously: the Georgian Academy of Sciences) was founded by a resolution # 183 of the Council of People’s Commissars of the Georgian SSR in February 10, 1941. The foundations for this important state decision were prepared by the advances of the national education and science in the XIX-XX centuries as well as a long and rich history of the spiritual culture of the Georgian people. It is quite natural that the National Academy of Sciences of Georgia is a legal successor of the Ikalto and Gelati academies in its content and function. Over the centuries, the Georgian nation has created a cultural integrity characteristic only for her, which is an integral part of the immortal treasure of humanity. The main core of the historical competitiveness of our nation has always been a high intellectual potential and indigenous cultural traditions. The awareness of the aforementioned advantage has protected the Georgians from both physical destruction and assimilation.
