Abstract
The current Constitution of Georgia entered into force on 25 November 1995. There are two autonomous Republics within the state territory, Abkhazia and Ajara. The territory South Ossetia is formally part of Georgia but effectively ruled by a Russian-supported separatist government. According to the Constitution the territorial state structure of Georgia will be determined by constitutional law after regaining jurisdiction over the entire country (Art 2 (3)). Currently, the country is subdivided into regions.
