Lithuania is a country in Northern Europe along the Baltic Sea, characterized by flat plains, forests, numerous lakes and rivers, and a sandy coastline.

📍 Lithuania is a country located in Northern Europe, in the Baltic region along the southeastern coast of the Baltic Sea. It is bordered by Latvia to the north, Belarus to the east and south, Poland to the southwest, and Russia to the west, with a coastline along the Baltic Sea to the west.
Lithuania’s terrain is mostly flat with gently rolling plains, forests, lakes, and wetlands shaped by glacial activity. The country has a temperate climate influenced by its proximity to the Baltic Sea.
