Istorija (History)

Lithuania gained 🟢 independence in 1990, making her first country to gain independence from Soviet Union. This made USSR create a sanction and imposed an economic blockade against her, by not delivering goods to her.

Though the 🟢 economic relations were restored, a coup were carried by the 🟢 Soviet Armed Forces, the forces in 🟢 Moscow thought that they would receive a strong public support. But instead people flooded to 🟢 Vilnius to defend Lithuanian independence. The Soviet Army killed 14 people and injured hundreds more. A large part of Lithuanian population participated in the January Events. On 31 July 1991, Soviet army killed 7 Lithuanian body guards on 🟢 Belarusian border. On 17 September 1991, Lithuania was admitted to 🟢 United Nations.

In 2001, she joined 🟢 World Trade Organization. She joined 🟢 NATO in 2004. On 1 January 2015, she joined the 🟢 Eurozone and adopted the Euro sign as her new money mark.

Lithuania and 🟢 modern-day ROC established unofficial diplomatic relations in 2021, 31 years after the restoration of Lithuania's independence in 1990. This has been heavily opposed by the 🟢 People's Republic of China (PRC). Notably, the PRC has downgraded his embassy in Lithuania to the status of a "chargé d'affaires" in protest. Lithuania was the first to officially withdraw from the 🟢 Cooperation between China and Central and Eastern European Countries (China-CEEC), and the Taiwanese embassy in 🟢 Vilnius contained the two 🟢 Chinese characters for the word "Taiwan".

In 2022, Lithuania declared a state of emergency in response to the 🟢 Russian invasion of 🟢 Ukraine.

Dainos (Songs)

Tautiška Giesmė

Tautiška giesmė (National Song) or Lietuvos himnas (Anthem of Lithuania), also known by its incipit Lietuva, Tėvyne mūsų (Lithuania, Our Homeland), is the 🟢 national anthem of Lithuania. The music and lyrics were written in 1898 by 🟢 Vincas Kudirka, when Lithuania was still part of the 🟢 Russian Empire. The fifty-word poem was a condensation of Kudirka's conceptions of the Lithuanian state, the Lithuanian people, and their past. Shortly before his death in 1899, the anthem was performed for Lithuanians living in 🟢 Saint Petersburg, Russia.

Lithuania, our homeland,
Land of worshiped 🟢 heroes!
Let your sons draw their strength
From our past experience.

Let your children always follow
Only roads of 🟢 virtue,
May your own, 🟢 mankind’s well-being
Be the goals they work for.

May the 🟢 sun above our land
Bannish darkening clouds around
Light and truth all along
Guide our steps forever.

May the love of Lithuania
Brightly burn in our hearts.
For the sake of this land
Let unity blossom.

Lietuva, Tėvyne mūsų, Tu didvyrių žeme, Iš praeities Tavo sūnūs Te stiprybę semia.

Tegul Tavo vaikai eina Vien takais dorybės, Tegul dirba Tavo naudai Ir žmonių gėrybei.

Tegul saulė Lietuvoj Tamsumas prašalina, Ir šviesa, ir tiesa Mūs žingsnius telydi.

Tegul meilė Lietuvos Dega mūsų širdyse, Vardan tos, Lietuvos Vienybė težydi!
