Description: The official radio station of the de facto government.
Clandestine Radio Intel QSL Gallery Abkhazia is a small strip of land in northwestern Georgia that hugs the Black Sea.  Since most of the population is Christian, Abkhazians felt a sense of national fervor and decided in 1989 to declare their independence from both the Soviet state of Georgia (which is predominantly Muslim) and the USSR (which was atheist.)  The collapse of the Soviet Union in 1990 opened the gates, so to speak, for all of the Soviet republics to become independent and Gerogia established its own government and constitution a year later.  Abkhazians refused to integrate with Georgia since in 1921 Abkhazia had been proclaimed as a separate Soviet republic.  It was, according to some accounts, the pressure of influential Georgian Bolsheviks which prompted Lenin to combine the territory into the republic of Georgia.
