After World War I, where will Lithuania's capitol be located,
Kaunas, Siauliai, Vilnius
Some historical perspective about Vilnius
Lithuania's Capitol - Amžininkai - Contemporaries
Post World War I Lithuanian intelligencija pondered Lithuania's destiny and Independence. One issue was Lithuania's historical Capitol, Vilnius. This segment covers what occurred in this period from 1918 - 1940.
Poland seized Vilnius after Lithuania declared its Independence [in 1918] and Vilnius became a pawn tossed back and forth in this time period like a chess match.
Eventually the outcome over Vilnius was good and just.
This segment should have preceeded yesterday's - "1939 Lithuania Recovers its Capitol, Vilnius" - Lietuva Atgauna Sostinę Vilnių -
