Are you familiar with the Baltic States?

Wilhelm von Urach - the German king of Lithuania or the eternal candidate?
After the First World War, or as it is called in Europe - The Great War, the Baltic States gained their independence from the Russian Empire and established (or, in Lithuania's case reestablished) their very own republics based on ethnic ground. This period is called the Interwar, the period of cultural and economical thrive that cannot be remembered without the occupation of Vilnius, that was shading the Lithuanian sun at the time. Because of this annexation, the capital of Lithuania (as it is now called the ´´Temporary Capital´´) became Kaunas.
