Russia invaded Georgia in order to protect the interests of South Ossetia. The Georgian military had attacked South Ossetia because it claimed that Georgian towns had been fired upon and was responding to those attacks. Russia has strong ties to South Ossetia and Abkhazia. Russia is not willing that these regions should lose their ability to govern themselves without interference from Georgia. Georgia, on the other hand does not want to be subject to attacks from the South Ossetians. Georgia itself was once a part of the Soviet Union but won its independence from it in April of 1991.
