Karl Knorring

Karl Fyodorovich Knorring (Карл Фёдорович фон Кнорринг; 22 May 1746 - 12 February 1820) was a lieutenant-general of the Russian Empire, who served as the inspector of the Caucasian Line from March 1799 to late 1802. He played an important role in the incorporation of Eastern Georgia (Kartli-Kakheti) into the Russian Empire. He was dismissed as a result of being unable to make the area stable, as well as the corruption of his appointed officials. He died after 1805.
