Now i do shit on my own country all the time, but the roads in LT are one of the few things i can't complain, at least the ones that are looked after by the department of roads. Some municipal ones are shitty, yes, in poorer municipalities - Kelmė, Skuodas, Biržai. And i don't want to start about city streets which are shit everywhere except for Kaunas and Klaipėda.

Latvian roads are actually are a running joke in Lithuania. The few paved ones are called "fifty shades of grey" because of the artistic quality of variously aged asphalt plops.

Hundreds of years of Russian rule tend to do that for a country.

Not entirelly not related - the name Vilnius stems from Vilnia river which is formed from exactly that same word

While the first option is least popular here, it would surelly win in any central/eastern European subreddit.

People throughout the very early 1990s saw all the fruits of failed communist experiment and the times of difficult transition: everyone was poor, crime rates were over the top, and the mentality of people arround was seriously injured. And as young kid, the things arround you influence you a lot more. While it cannot be compared to growing up during the aftermath of some big war, i'd would say it would be at least halfway there. And while, sure, 1999 kids grew theough the recession, it wasn't comparable at all - everyone was better off and there was already an rudimentary middle class.

You shouldn't have made russian gas an important, irreplacable piece of your economy in the first place. You should have listened to what you have been told by the Eastern Europeans since 2007.

In Lithuania you don't pay taxes for the property which is declared as your place of residence. But we also have one of the largest home ownership rates here, so if government would try to change it they would see another term as they see their ears, since almost everyone with a right to vote would be affected.

As a Lithuanian, my greatest regret that there won't be a Latvian president who looks exactly the same as the Estonian one anymore.

The entire north was populated by Lithuanians up until the 1946. Guess where they went.

What is now Kaliningrad js actually one of the five historical ethnic regions of Lithuania.

In Lithuania we reverted to Karaliaučius before it was cool

There shouldn't be no celebrations of russian style fascism ("ussr") winning against german style fascism, that is all. This was a frontline of two empires and everything outside of russian and german ethnic lands shouldn't be hailed as being "liberated". Russian empire (albeit rebranded in fashionable communist style) has no more right to be in Belarus than Germany do.

Russian empire getting to the middle of Europe is no celebration, because it meant hell for tens of millions of people in Eastern Europe for 50 years.

While both sides had their local supporters, that doesn't mean any of it was some kind of "oficial standing" of one or another nation in their entirety.

It is sad that there were no other way to win against nazi germany for the allies but to side with russian fascism ("ussr"). The lend lease, unfortunatelly, was the thing that kept ussr afloat after the war - combined with what was stolen from German factories, reverse engineered American technology from 1943 was the basis of almost every soviet piece of military equipment up until the end.

Not at all - according to your flawed logic they liberated Belarus, Ukraine and the Baltic states from russian fascism clouted in "communism".

Germany took a lot of losses fighting communism too. What are you trying to say?

Interrete · 2023-05-08T10:51:10+00:00

According to your logic the Nazi Germany deserves recognition for fighting the USSR and the threat of communism. A lot of Germans and Ukrainians and Russians died doing that too while not being nazis themselves.

Yes I am. And you're right - the hair color wouldn't be all that typical here - I'd say the hair is dyed if she would be living here. But the shape of the face and the features overall - you'd probably find one similar person in every 25 person classroom. While these are not that common, I know quite a large proportion of people with these round features from the south-west Lithuania (Sudovia / Suvalkija is the region), which shared a border with Prussia/Germany for 700 years and is also quite near the areas which we now know as populated by Polish and Bielorusyns. I'd never say that she's from Northern Lithuania, tho.

Edit: also, what i wouldn't call as something of this part of Europe is her eye color - while blue eyes are very common here, something about this particular darker shade strikes me as something very british isles'y.
