Hello. Per the second paragraph, second sentence of "Efforts to Restore Statehood" ... please note, the correct preposition in this case is 'on', not, 'of'. This is a very important distinction. Pressure or repression against the Catholic Church of Lithuania was applied by the Tsar ON the Catholic Church of Lithuania. The phrase currently reads, "pressure OF the Catholic Church", which implies that the pressure came from the Catholic Church of Lithuania against itself (which makes no sense in this context), when it was actually coming from Tsarist Russia against the Catholic Church of Lithuania. ] (]) 07:03, 27 December 2024 (UTC)

Seems like there's a dispute about whether Lithuania should be considered a Northern European country or not...... Maybe we can discuss this issue here so hopefully we can build a ] and resolve the issue.

:Officially by UN as well Lithuanian government claims that they’re Northern European countries. If Latvia and Estonia are considered to be stated as Northern European countries in their wiki page even though all three countries are Baltic States then so should Lithuania be considered as Northern European. Especially that it’s agreed widely but international community that three Baltic states are part of Northern Europe. ] (]) 19:39, 28 April 2023 (UTC)
