The Ossetians in Trialeti are a group of ethnic Ossetians, settling the central Georgian districts of Khashuri and Borjomi, historically part of the Trialeti province. The Ossetians resettled there in the 19th century from Samachablo, South Ossetian Autonomous Oblast at the time of USSR. In 1922, after the conflict between the Georgian government forces and Bolshevik-sympathizing Ossetian rebels, and the forcible Sovietization of Georgia, the recently created South Ossetian Autonomous Oblast within the Georgian SSR claimed the villages, mainly settled by Ossetians in Trialeti as its exclave - to no avail, however.
