STATEMENT OF THE HOUSE OF BAGRATIONI SOCIETY (2006) About the legitimate principles and dynastic rights of the Bagrationi Family After the first The Hague Conference (1899), the Russian Emperor Nicholas II was forced to justify himself before the European diplomacy concerning Georgia, and in 1907 he formally restored the royal rights of the Bagration-Gruzinski Royal family. Thus, he restored the Georgian Kingdom, which was illegally abolished by the Romanovs in 1801, thereby ignoring the “Georgievsk Treaty” of 1783 (Elizabeth, Queen of Georgia. Georgian issue. Complete Code of Laws of the Russian Empire (CCL), Vol. XXI, № 15,835. SPB., 1911, p.1-9)… …By the Resolution of the State Council of 12th September 1804, and by the decision of the Ministry Council of 12th March 1812, it was established that “only the children of Georgian (Kartli-Kakhetian) Kings and Georgian Princes/Princesses could retain their titles, and their descendants would bear the title of Prince Gruzinski (of Georgia). For the future, the descendants of the Imereti Royal House would bear the title of Prince Imeretinski (Russian State Historical Archive (RSHA), Department of General Affairs of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, Fund 1284, Inventory 235 (1 room, 3 tables), 1804-1861, Case № 305 - Minutes of the State Council of 12th September 1804, magazines of Ministry Council dated 26th March 1812 and other Provisions of the Members of the Royal Houses of the Caucacus; P. Yudin: “The Fate of Prince Bagration Imereti in Russia” in Russian Archives, St. Petersburg, March 1896, pp. 299-312). On 25th April of 1833, by a decree issued by Emperor Nikolai I of Russia, and by the Resolution of the State Council, the descendants of King Erekle II and Giorgi XII were again granted the title of Georgian Princes (Gruzinski), which later became part of their surname (Noble Houses of the Russian Empire, edited by S.V. Dumin, Moscow 1996, p.71). This demonstrates that even the powerful Russian Empire could not change historical facts. The other noble representatives of the Bagration family all belong to offshoot princely branches: the Bagration-Mukhranskis, the Bagration-Davitishvili, and the Bagration-Babadishi (D.
