Why, exactly?
Two well-known things are called Georgia. It is thus logical for the title to be a disambiguation between them, and everything else known by that name.

Ohh, come on, there's a huge difference between Georgia the Country and Georgia the State. Georgia is a WHOLE country. Like, bigass, we got troups, "why don't we take this outside, former Soviet country-style", international trade, country.
Disambigging those two would be like disambigging "Paris" to separate "Paris, Texas" and "Paris, France". This is the worst kind of US-centrism.

I've never set foot in the US and I've still seen and heard more references to Georgia the state than Georgia the country in my entire life. I think making [[Georgia]] a disambig is a good compromise.
