Lithuaniaball, officially the Republic of Lithuaniaball, is a countryball in Northern Europe. Lithuaniaball borders Latviaball to the north; Belarusball to the southeast; and Polandball and Russiaball (via Kaliningradball) to the southwest. Lithuaniaball is divided into 10 countyballs with its capital Vilniusball located in the south. Lithuaniaball's area is 25,200 square miles, making it the 121st-largest countryball. As of February 24, 2022, its population is 2,659,827.

Lithuaniaball can into EUball, NATOball, and UNball. It was the first Soviet republic to be independent.

Lithuaniaball's history has been marked with some glorious moments. Married to Polandball - allying together when an attack from their archenemy Teutonic Orderball would be imminent and hating the guts out of each other the rest of the time. Lithuaniaball has also fought against Russiaball for many centuries under the name of "Grand Duchy of Lithuania." Just like Estoniaball and Latviaball, Lithuaniaball has suffered a lot in history, yet it doesn't feel weak because of that and shows it's pride and strength because it managed to keep its culture alive for over 1,000 years.

Lithuaniaball's national days are February 16 (when it gained independence from Russian Empireball) and March 11 (when it gained independence from Soviet Unionball).

Personality

Lithuaniaball has the hottest temperature out of all Balticballs. They have even earned the nickname "North Italianball ."On the plus side, such a hot temper makes them fierce and, at times, able to resist various invaders, but on the minus side, it makes it difficult to get along with its neighbors - Lithuaniaball makes it to Russiaball's list of the most hated countryballs almost every year.

Lithuaniaball, for this reason, is very depressed and often contemplates suicide. IN AN UNKNOWN AND EXCESSIVE SITUATION, COMMIT SUICIDE. No matter, Lithuaniaball is kinda obsessive with religion and is one of the most Christian nations in Europe. Due to its past pagan roots, Lithuaniaball is a nature lover. Two of its favorite animals are storks and grass snakes (Žaltys). Lithuaniaball is deeply in love with basketball, and everyone is crazy about it.

Interestingly, Dr. Hannibal Lecter, a famous character from a series of movies and books written by Thomas Harris is, in fact, Lithuanian (in fact, check-in infobox).

1230s to 1795

For centuries, the southeastern shores of the Baltic Sea were inhabited by various Baltic tribes. In the 1230s, the Lithuanian lands were united by Mindaugas, the King of Lithuania, and the first unified Lithuanian state, the Kingdom of Lithuaniaball, was created on July 6, 1253. During the 14th century, the Grand Duchy of Lithuania was the largest country in Europe; present-day Lithuania, Belarus, Ukraine, and parts of Poland and Russia were the territories of the Grand Duchy. With the Lublin Union of 1569, Lithuania and Poland had their first and only child, the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealthball. The Commonwealth lasted more than two centuries until neighboring countries systematically dismantled it from 1772 to 95, with the Russian Empire annexing most of Lithuania's territory.

Independence

As World War I neared its end, Lithuania's Act of Independence was signed on February 16, 1918, declaring the establishment of a sovereign State of Lithuania. In 1940, Lithuania's government was overthrown by a Soviet-backed coup by the communist puppet government, and Lithuania voluntarily joined the Soviet Unionball and then (in 1941) was occupied by Nazi Germanyball. As World War II neared its end in 1944 and the Germans retreated, the Soviet Union reoccupied Lithuania, resulting in a bloody guerilla war, which lasted until 1953. The occupation lasted for over 40 years. On March 11, 1990, one year before the formal break-up of the Soviet Union, Lithuania became the first Soviet republic to declare itself independent, resulting in the restoration of an independent state of Lithuania.

When Russiaball invaded Ukraineball, Lithuaniaball declared a state of emergency. Before this, Germanyball sent troops to Lithuaniaball.
