The Republic of Lithuania borders the Baltic Sea in Eastern Europe, sharing borders with Latvia, Poland, Belarus and Russia. The population is about 3.5 million people. Lithuania’s government is a parliamentary republic with a president serving as head of state and a prime minister serving as head of government.
Lithuania declared independence in 1918; however, the country was occupied by the Soviets and Nazi Germany during World War II and was integrated into the Soviet Union following the end of the war. In 1990, a year before the formal breakup of the Soviet Union, Lithuania became the first Soviet republic to declare independence. Lithuania gained membership in the European Union and NATO in 2004. While Lithuania was hit hard by the 2009 financial crisis, the government’s efforts to reform the economy and attract foreign investment have resulted in one of the fastest growing economies in Europe. Lithuania continues to shift towards a knowledge-based economy, with an emphasis on biotechnology.
Lithuania is known for its beautiful lakes and forests. The Curonian Spit National Park provides excellent trails and an opportunity to see elk, deer and avian wildlife, as well as great views of the dunes. The capital, Vilnius, is known for the architecture of its old town. Travellers looking for a summer seaside resort can visit Palanga, a city with a population of 10,000 that grows to 600,000 in July and August.
