Per the article itself, the only use of he term "Republic of Georgia" was by unidentified local printers on dates uncertain.--Jim in Georgia Contribs Talk 15:26, 18 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

There shouldn't be discussion on deletion of these pre-CSA sovereign states (albeit unrecognized). If your point for deleting the articles is solely based on name, then discuss renaming, not deleting. For the 2012 country of Azawad, there is disagreement on the name. It doesn't mean you delete the article.—SPESH531Other 18:27, 18 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Delete There doesn't appear to be any verifiable evidence/reliable source of the name in contemporary official use. The article has been up for 8 years without really changing the speculative/dubious nature of the name. Red Harvest (talk) 01:31, 2 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
