The Bagration Mukhraneli is the oldest line of the Bagration Family and they are directly
descendents of the last King of united Georgia, Alexander I. And straight descendents of all the Kings of Georgia.They are also related to
King Erekle II, the last King of Kartli-Kakheti.(today not a independent Government). King who reigned in Georgian territory but not in all Georgia.

For the Bagrationis lines of Imereti and Gruzinsky its not possible to pretend to the throne of Georgia as the senior direct line descendents of the last King of Georgia Alexander I are the Bagrationi Mukhraneli line. If Georgia’s Country splits again in 3 different independents governments it may be the case that the lines of Bagration Imeretinsky and Gruzinsky will have an option to claim their ancestors territories.
Today Georgia is ruled by a central government as in Alexander I times.
Any pretension which may occur coming from the un senior genealogical descendents of the Alexander I will be drop in separatism claims.
.
As far as the Bagration Gruzinsky Family is concerned, the grandsons of the Head of
the House, Nugzar Bagrationi, do not carry the surname Bagration (they are Chichinadze
and Malania surnames);
In the case of Bagrationi Imeretinsky line, the last member passed away in 2009 (Nino
Bagration Imeretinsky) buried in the state cemetery and not in any Georgian Orthodox Cathedral follows the traditions of the Georgian Royals. His descendants carry the surname Japaridze,
. From Davit Batonishvili onwards, the lawful grandson of the last King of Kartli and
Kakheti, Erekle II, the king’s wife and daughters lost their dynastic rights following the
king’s death;
Following the collapse of the Soviet Union, the Governments of Georgia have recognised
the position and rights of H.R.H. Prince Jorge Bagration (the father of Prince Davit) as
the Head of the Royal House of Georgia and as the Crown Prince of Georgia. This formal
recognition puts the Royal House of Bagration in a unique position amongst the former
ruling houses;
Besides, in 1991 the Mukhrani branch was not only recognized as royal by the Georgian
government, but the insignia of the family’s order (the Order of the Eagle and the
Seamless Tunic) was allowed to be officially worn in Georgia.
The recent monarchist declaration of His Holiness and Beatitude Ellia II, the Patriarch of
All Georgia, implicitly pointing the Bagrationi Mukhranelis;
In the official documents, passports and identity cards (of the Republic of Georgia), the
members of the Bagrationi Mukhraneli Royal Family are declared as Batonishvili (son of
the lord) and as Crown Prince’s;
By request of the Spanish King Alfonso XII, due to the Royal wedding of Infanta Maria
de las Mercedes de Baviera y de Borbon with H.R.H. Prince Irakli Bagration Mukhraneli,
Vladimir Kirilovich Romanov, Head of the Romanov Imperial Family, issued a statement
in which he recognized the Royal blood of the Bagration Mukhraneli,
Most of the Royal Houses around the world (whether regnant or not) today recognize the
Bagration Mukhraneli as the Georgian Royal Family.
There are other dynastic reasons that point out to the Bagration Mukharneli’s unique position
over other lines of the same family. These are:
According to Bagration laws, if any member of the Dynasty, who must have Orthodox
faith, gets married to a non-Orthodox person and through a non-Orthodox ceremony,
such Royal looses his/her dynastic rights. The same applies if such Royals are not
baptized in the Orthodox Church. For the last century, both the Bagration Gruzinsky and
the Bagration Imeretinsky were married through civil marriages. Such members of the
Royal Family who choose to be married by a civil marriage will be excluded from the
Bagration Dynastic laws. In the case of males, they are allowed to keep only their
surname;
The Bagration Mukhraneli are blood connected with the Imperial House of Russia and
with the Royal House of Bavaria. They are also second cousins of His Majesty Juan
Carlos, King of Spain;
. I'd much rather the latter come true. Queen Victoria would surely tell them to "Lie back and think of Georgia."
