2. Contemporary Georgian alphabet and literary
language: to simplify acquisition of literacy,
i.e. to allow most Georgians to acquire means
of communication easily, Ilia simplified the alphabet
(removed letters of only historic importance)
and harmonized the literary language
with colloquial speech.
3. Making contemporary literature – it was Ilia who
introduced issues of contemporary European literature
in the Georgian one –not only he was
writing a social literature but was also encouraging
other writers and poets to write about social
issues as opposed to only love, feasts and a
celebrated history.
4. Banking system that promotes economic development
of the country – the Bank of the Nobility,
co-founded and managed by Ilia Chavchavadze,
not only boosted financial assets but also helped
educational and cultural institutions introduce
and practice European ideas and currents and
send Georgians to study in Europe.
IlIa Introduced and spread
all the processes necessary
for formIng a contemporary
socIety: prInt medIa, educatIon
In natIve language and shared
hIstorIcal awareness – these
are the three Important factors

To understand Ilia it is equally important to know
that he was a successful person both in social and
political spheres. His success was founded on the innovations
that he introduced and practiced: he was
a successful state official (justice of the peace), businessman
(the Bank of the Nobility) and politician –
he was a member of the State Council and was actively
engaged in gaining autonomy for the country
of Georgia.
From today’s perspective it is safe to say that Ilia
Chavchavadze is the author of the idea of a contemporary
Georgia and the very first steps for realization
of the idea have been made by him.
