Crisis in Georgia, Quick run down.
During the ninties, Ossetia and Abkhazia try to break away from the Soviet Republic of Georgia.
Georgia retakes them by military force, causeing a cultural clash. The two regions have fought for freedom since.
Modern day: Violence erupts overnight, as Georgia attempts to retake South Ossentia.

Georgian and Russian forces clash, bombs start flying into T'bilisi, captial of Georgia.
Georgian President has been trying to get Western Support for his troops.
United States, UN, EU, NATO, others call for a cease-fire, and withdrawral of Russian troops from Georgian soil (South Ossentia is not recognized as sovereign by the UN)
Information Warfare attack DDOS severl Ossetian news sites
The Georgian National Bank and Foreign Affairs ministry are hacked, images uploaded of President Mikhail Saakashvili and Hitler.
Bombing and street fighting continues between Seperatist / Russian forces and Georgian soldiers.
Capital of Ossetia, Tskhinvali, suffers major damage, Parliament building burned down, much of the city on fire and evacuated.
The region is now on the brink of war, with Russian reinforcements on the way. I'll update when I learn more, but the news over there is hard to follow, and the US is too pro-Georgia to be entirely accurate.
