Georgia's post-Rose-Revolution anti-corruption reforms
Following the November 2003 Rose Revolution, Georgia's government dismissed most of its traffic and patrol police (about 16,000 officers) and overhauled tax, customs, civil registry and university-admission systems, replacing discretionary contact points with transparent, technology-based services. Reported bribery in police encounters fell to roughly 1%, and the World Bank later cited corruption indicators approaching those of advanced EU states.
