George V the Brilliant (Georgian: გიორგი V ბრწყინვალე, romanized: giorgi V brts'q'invale; also translated as the Illustrious, or Magnificent; 1286–1346) of the Bagrationi dynasty, was the king (mepe) of the Kingdom of Georgia from 1299 to 1302 and again from 1314 until his death in 1346. A flexible and far-sighted politician, he recovered Georgia from a century-long Mongol domination, restoring the country's previous strength and Christian culture. He grew up in Samtskhe, at the court of his grandfather Beka I Jaqeli. In 1299, Ghazan Khan engaged the young George in a fight against his own brother David VIII - he appointed him king, but his rights did not extend beyond Tbilisi, and therefore he was called the "King of Tbilisi".
