Part 16 - Interesting History of Lithuania 1794, 1830 and 1863

As the USA became the first Modern Democracy in 1776, Lithuania fell into the clutches of Czarist Russia in 1795 and fell off the face of Europe as an Independent Nation. This was an example of the strong overwhelming a smaller nation at their whim. There was no Champion of Freedom at the time to check injustice. The USA was just emerging as a Democracy. Time will tell about the outcome of these events.

Live Free or Die is a "Motto" worth remembering.

Cherish Democracy. Let Freedom Ring

Be mindful of Your Rights and Responsibilities!

Don't give up Yours
