editThe "Kingdom of Eastern Georgia" was the same as the Kingdom of Georgia the kings were titles as "King of Georgia" and not as "King of Eastern Georgia" while the Kingdom of Western Georgia (or Kingdom of Imereti) were titles as " Kings of Imereti".
The Kingdom of Western Georgia separated from the Mongol Georgia, while Eastern was a vassal of the Mongols, so "Kingdom of Eastern Georgia" was named Kingdom of Georgia but controlled only the Eastern part, while Western separated because of Mongol rule in Georgia 188.73.235.162 (talk) 08:08, 25 March 2024 (UTC)

Kingdom of Georgia (1256–1329) → Kingdom of Eastern Georgia – WP:CONSISTENCY w/ Kingdom of Western Georgia. An emperor ✖ 05:43, 26 March 2024 (UTC) — Relisting. Natg 19 (talk) 00:52, 3 April 2024 (UTC)
- Hi @Emperor of Emperors:. As rightly explained by the IP above, the "official" but significantly reduced Kingdom of Georgia remained in place in eastern Georgia around Tbilissi during the period 1256–1329, hence the title Kingdom of Georgia (1256–1329). It is only that David VI decided to leave, make secession and establish his own, separate Kingdom of Western Georgia (he basically fled Mongol oppression). David VI, who seceded, was also the "Junior" (Narin) ruler of the two Davids, while David VII who remained in Tbilissi was the "Senior" (Ulu) ruler. A few sources do use "Kingdom of Eastern Georgia", as mentionned side-by-side in the introduction, but this seems a bit inapropriate from a historical perspective especially since the "regalian" function such as Atabeg or Amirspasalar remained in Tbilissi. I am overall more comfortable with the current title "Kingdom of Georgia (1256–1329)", and it seems to be more consistent with the rest of the articles I have seen about the history of Georgia. पाटलिपुत्र (Pataliputra) (talk) 08:13, 26 March 2024 (UTC)
