| Description |
A metal plaque near the National Library of Lithuania in Vilnius showing how vast the Grand Duchy of Lithuania was from 1392-1430 when it stretched from the Baltic Sea to the Black Sea and covered some 930 thousand square kilometeres - the size of modern Egypt and easily larger than any country in modern Europe - with a population of almost two and a half million. This should be compared to present-day Lithuania which has a size of only 65 thousand square kilometers, less than 1/14-th the size of the Grand Duchy, and a population of almost 3 million. |
