In 30th Georgians seized control over Communist Party and NKVD. Stalin, Beria, Kobulov, Merkulov, Decanozov, Ordjonikidze, and many others. In every regional Party Comittee was Georgian. Borders of Soviet Georgia where drawn by Stalin, and he included territories never belonged to it. After Stalin's death an Ukrainian Chrushtchev come to head of USSR. He closed GULAG and released prisoners. My grandma among them.
