Lithuania - Day of Restoration
Day of Restoration of the State of Lithuania is a Lithuanian public holiday celebrated on February 16 each year. It can be considered the country's Independence Day.
Lithuanian state was established in 1230s as the Great Duchy of Lithuania. In 1385, it formed a dynastic union with Poland. In 1569, both countries merged into a dualistic state, the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth. Lithuania lost its independence completely after the Partitions of Poland occurred in the late 18th century.
