a. Initially, the administration was based in Kurta and was administering the settlements and territory outside the separatists’ control. This territory was lost as a result of the 2008 South Ossetia War and thus the administration is now in exile. b. The administration was set up by the Georgian government as a temporary measure before the settlement of South Ossetia’s status.
The Administration of South Ossetia (Georgian: სამხრეთ ოსეთის ადმინისტრაცია, Samxret Osetis administʼracia; Ossetian: Хуссар Ирыстоны Администраци, Xussar Irystony Administraci), officially the Administration of the temporary Administrative-Territorial Unit on the Territory of the Former Autonomous Region of South Ossetia, is an administrative division that Georgia regards as the legal government of South Ossetia. The administration was set up by the Georgian government as a transitional measure leading to the settlement of South Ossetia's status. The area lies within the territory of the former South Ossetian Autonomous Oblast which was abolished by the Georgian government in 1990. Since then South Ossetia has no formal autonomous status within Georgia.
Following the 2008 South Ossetia war, the Provisional Administration has had no South Ossetian territory under its control and remains a nominal entity.
