Kraljevina Abhazija
Izgled
Kraljevina Abhazija (gruzijski: აფხაზთა სამეფო), također poznata i kao Kraljevstvo Abhaza, je naziv za ranosrednjovjekovnu državu na Zakavkazju kojoj je prijestolnica bio grad Anakopija (današnji Novij Afon) u Abhaziji. Postojala je, ispočetka kao bizantski vazal/klijentska država, a potom kao nezavisni entitet od oko 8. vijeka do početka 11. vijeka kada se preko dinastijskih brakova sa bagratidskom dinastijom utopila u gruzijsku državu Tao-Klardžeti.
