19th century J-CTS1460: Evstat Bibiluri, Georgia
According to the Georgian DNA Project, this descendant of an Alan noble family is assigned to haplogroup J-CTS1460. The history of the rise of the Bibiluri family begins with the Sidamont clan, whose members became eristavs of Ksani and Aragvi in Transcaucasia. The Sidamonts found themselves in their new place after the Tatar-Mongol invasion. The history of their rise is reflected in the chronicle "Monument of the Eristavs," created between 1405/6–1410 in the Largvisi Monastery.

1810–1917 AD. Abkhazia in the Russian Empire. Muhajirism of the Abkhazians and the Caucasus
In the second half of the 16th century, the dependence of Abkhazia and Western Georgia on the Ottoman Empire intensified, which built numerous fortifications on the Black Sea coast — Sukhum-Kale (future Sukhum), Poti, Anapa and others. A significant part of the population of Abkhazia was converted to Islam; the resistance of the Abkhazians to the destruction of their spiritual and material values was expressed in anti-Turkish uprisings (1725, 1733, 1771, 1806 and others). From the end of the 18th century, the Abkhazian princes sought salvation from Ottoman oppression — and found it in the form of Russian protection. Prince Keleshbey, who in 1803 asked for Russian citizenship, was killed in 1808 as a result of a pro-Turkish conspiracy. His son Safarbey (George) in 1809 suppressed the supporters of Turkey and turned to the Russian government with a request for protection. The request was granted: on February 17 (29), 1810, the Manifesto of Alexander I on the annexation of the Abkhazian Principality to the Russian Empire was issued.
From September 1 to October 25, 1917, Abkhazia was part of the Russian Republic.
The end of the 18th century and the entire 19th century — a dark page in the history of the peoples of the Caucasus, many of whom found themselves on the brink of total disappearance. Having unleashed the Caucasian War, Russia became the cause of the forced exodus of the population to Turkey, known in history as "Muhajirism." .
1878–1953 AD. G2a1a1: Joseph Stalin, USSR
Stalin's grandson — theater director A.V. Burdonsky — agreed to provide a DNA sample. The analysis showed that Joseph Vissarionovich's DNA belongs to haplogroup G2a1a1-P18. Its representatives, originating in India or Pakistan 14,300 years ago, spread 12,500 years ago across Central Asia, Europe and the Middle East. On the territory of the former USSR, representatives of this haplogroup live both in the North Caucasus and in Georgia. However, its highest frequency is among Ossetians.
