Some people live to be 120 years old and remain active until they die. Scientists think people live so long because they spend a lot of time working outdoors and eat a healthy diet.
Georgia has a warm climate. It is bordered on the north by the Caucasus Mountains. To the west, lies the Black Sea. Many people farm here. In particular, grapes grow well here.
