Lithuania is a country in Eastern, often referred to as Northern Europe or in Baltic Division. First time Lithuania was mentioned in medieval German manuscript, the Quedlinburg Chronicle, on 14 February 1009. The Lithuanian lands were united by Mindaugas in 1236, and neighbouring countries referred to it as "the state of Lithuania". The official coronation of Mindaugas as King of Lithuania was on July 6, 1253, and the official recognition of Lithuanian statehood as the Kingdom of Lithuania. During the early period of Vytautas the Great (1316-1430), the Grand Duchy of Lithuania occupied the territories of present-day Belarus, Ukraine, and parts of Poland and Russia stretching across a substantial part of Europe, from the Baltic to the Black Sea. By the end of the fourteenth century, Lithuania was the largest country in Europe, and was also the only remaining pagan state. Since 1569 Lithuania was annexed by Poland, few centuries later by Russian Empire. In the wake of WWI, Lithuania's Act of Independence was signed on February 16, 1918, declaring re-establishment of a sovereign state. Lithuania was occupied by the Soviet Union from 1940 to 1941. As WWII neared its end in 1944 and the Nazis retreated, the Soviet Union re-occupied Lithuania. On March 11, 1990, Lithuania became the FIRST Soviet republic to declare its renewed independence. Lithuanians and Latvians are the last Balts. Baltas (in Lithuanian) balts (in Latvian) means WHITE.
