Not much.
It's one of the Baltic states. I'm glad they got their Independence from Russia, because there was no legitimate reason for annexation and the people seemed to prefer living their own destiny. That's pretty much everything I know about it, I'm afraid.
I have never heard anything bad about it, so I'll just assume it's a nice place.

www.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lithuania Try this. Lots of anti-Gay activity in Lithuania. Lithuanians do not obey EU laws but instead behave just like their grandfathers and prefer to join the SS as they did in their thousands.
During WW2 Lithuanians openly murdered their Jewish neighbours on the streets.
Mostly Lithuania is full of ex-Nazis and neo-Nazis.
Don't go there.

Seems like a country with a robust democracy and a strengthening economy. The only blots seem to be it's misguided advocacy of installing the US anti-ballistic missile shield, and the recent decision of the authorities in Vilnius to ban an info-bus informing citizens of the EU's anti-discrimination laws, citing concerns that gay activists joining the campaign would be attacked by protesters. And Hannibal Lecter was born there ...
