dc.description.abstract	This master’s essay compares the peaceful and conflictive aspects of presidential elections in Armenia and Georgia. Two post-Soviet successor states – Armenia and Georgia, are taken as subject cases for comparing regime developments over time. These two countries are of interest for two main reasons. First, they have the same geopolitical location. Second, they have shared common history by being a comprising state in USSR and gaining independence in 1991. The research aims to come up with key similarities and differences which resulted in different outcomes in Georgia (Color Revolution, 2003) and Armenia (Bloody Confrontation, 2008)	en_US
