Line 87:
On February 14, 1919, Georgia held parliamentary elections won by the [[Social Democratic Party of Georgia]] with 81.5% of the vote.{{citation needed|date=April 2022}} On March 21, [[Noe Zhordania]] formed the third government, which had to deal with armed peasants' revolts incited by local Bolshevik activists and largely supported from Russia. These became more troublesome when carried out by ethnic minorities such as [[Abkhazia]]ns and [[South Ossetia|Ossetians]].
 
However, the land reform was finally well handled by the [[Social Democratic Party of Georgia|Georgian Social Democratic Party]] government and the country established a multi-party system in sharp contrast with the "[[dictatorship of the proletariat]]" established by the Bolsheviks in Russia. In 1919, reforms in the judicial system and local self-governance were carried out. Abkhazia was granted autonomy. Nevertheless, ethnic issues continued to trouble the country, especially [[Georgian–Ossetian conflict (1918–20)|on the part of the Ossetians]], as witnessed in May 1920. [[Nikolay Chkheidze]] proposed a [[white mandate]] for Georgia, vying to protect Georgia in event of an invasion by the [[Red Army]]. Many opposed him though. (It is unknown whether or not the [[Kingdom of Italy]] wanted to place Georgia under its protection as a white mandate, but they were considering it.) nevertheless, Georgia did not become a mandate, resulting in the [[Red Army invasion of Georgia]]
