Georgia invaded one of its neighboring states, ossetia, that broke off and became an independent state in the 1990s. While the whole of Ossetia is an independent state, south Ossetia was a previous territory of Georgia and Georgia, wishing to regain its lost territory, invaded. Ossetia however, has gained close ties with Russia in the past years and now has the Russian military on their side. Russia now is attacking Georgia for invading its ally, but instead of staying within Ossetia, they are crossing the border into Georgia and fighting there, as well as bombing areas outside zones in which fighting is taking place.
Yes, Russia was fighting with Georgia (the country) since 2008.
Well, Georgia embargoed the exporting of Wine to Russia, and Russia denied the processing of gas to Georgia.
Russia fought with Georgia in a civil war.

2008
The 2008 South Ossetia War, also known as the Russia-Georgia War, was an armed conflict in August 2008 between Georgia on one side, and Russia, South Ossetia and Abkhazia on the other. The five-day war killed hundreds, left thousands of refugees in temporary shelters, and brought relations between Russia and the United States to their lowest point since the dark days of the Cold War.
won no one . There still is war .Quite war.
The breakaway territory of Georgia that was originally supported by Russia is South Ossetia. Following a conflict in the early 1990s, Russia recognized South Ossetia's independence in 2008 after a brief war between Georgia and Russia. This recognition has not been widely accepted internationally, with most countries viewing South Ossetia as part of Georgian territory.
If the attacks on Georgia continue.
Maybe. Georgia and the US are allies. The Russian Confederation and the US are trading partners but have not entered into an alliance. Well Not to long ago USA and russia signed a treaty.Instead of a frenamie state they are in a buddy state now.
It depends on what you mean by the State of Georgia, but let us be clear, Russia invaded the Republic of Georgia, a country in Europe and Asia, not the US State of Georgia. If Russia had invaded the US, the US certainly would have declared war on Russia.As for why the US did not declare war on Russia, this is probably to avoid sparking World War III, as well as the US's lack of a clear approach to dealing with international conflicts and changing developments under the Obama administration.
