I’m a American but my grandmother is from Lithuania so I’m very patriotic for the country

Lithuania has a long, proud and beautiful culture. It is a small country that has had, for hundreds of years to fight and survive against two massive bullying countries on either side of it. The guy from Geography Now is a bit of a jerk with all his references to "creepiness". Opening with the scenes from The Shining is just incredibly bad taste. I don't think there are very many people who think the Hill of Crosses is "creepy" (view YouTubes of people who are actually experiencing it).
Saying that Lithuania "had a huge role in the holocaust in WW2" is absolutely crazy. Yes there was antisemitism and yes, Nazi German Einsatzgruppen came in and recruited Right Extremists to participate in the killing. But, no, as a country, they did not have a "huge role" in the Holocaust in WW2. They were all fighting for their own survival. A significant percentage of the population was killed or deported to Siberia by the Russians. Please refer to the book Bloodlands by Timothy Snyder to get these facts straight.
Finally, I agree with the person who suggests that you watch the truly uplifting Jacob Laukaitis video "What is Lithuania".

Iganalina nuclear plant - it is decommissioned power plant it is closed since 2009 and is still being worked on to be safely deconstructed. It's CLOSED not ABANDONED!!!

Hello, Lithuanian army here 😄. Thanks for learning about out tiny country.
Though many people think the name Lithuania originated from the word lietus (rain) there is actually no evidence that supports it 🤷♀️. But that part about it raining here a lot is true. Its raining here right now too 😅.
Šaltibarščiai is amazing. We eat it in summer its usually made with cucumber, egg, canned beets (they give the pink colour), kefir (i dont know how to describe it but according to wikipedia it is s a fermented milk drink similar to a thin yogurt or ayran that is made from kefir grains, a specific type of mesophilic symbiotic culture.), you can add other things like onions and dill but i prefer not to, and you usually eat it with boiled potatos.
I don't know where he got that "if you whistle in your home it will blow up" but we do have a similar superstition that says if you whistle inside you will lose all your money or call evil spirits/the devil.
come visit us sometime :D
Side note: I dont know much about the memorial so here is a wikipedia extract: The memorial to the victims of Nazism at the Ninth Fort in Kaunas, Lithuania, was designed by sculptor A. Ambraziunas. Erected in 1984, the monument is 105 feet (32 m) high. The mass burial place of the victims of the massacres carried out in the fort is a grass field, marked by a simple yet frankly worded memorial written in several languages. It reads, "This is the place where Nazis and their assistants killed about 45,000 Jews from Lithuania and other European countries."

Gediminas wasn't a king, he was a grand duke. The first and only one King was Mindaugas (recognized and crowned by Pope Innocent IV in 1253). No any "Vytautynas", but Vytautas - Grand Duke of Lithuania.

Lithuanian here. If you whistle in a house it doesn't burn and explode... Much worse you call the devil over to your house if you do it

If you want to watch more about LIthuania .I suggest to watch Jacob Laukaitis video What is Lithuania.

That giant monument is just outside my window. It is made of concrete.

Well the power plant has been dismantled long time ago, because it was deemed unsafe as it is a sister powerplant of Chernobyl and I think it was one of the prerequisites to join the eu. And it is not really abandoned - I think it works like a museum, and it was used to film Chernobyl series. And that trade union building has been demolished for quite a while. Well our country is growing rapidly, so videos like these age quite fast :D

Usually, I watch BTS reactions of yours, and then I found this about my country I thought, familiar face :)
Lithuania is more mystical than creepy. We have a lot of water sources, and forests so nights and early mornings are misty and beautiful. Culture itself has a lot of contrast, cause our history is full of survival and fights to keep our traditions and language. Many countries tried to delete it and the more they tried, the more our ancestors stubbornly tried their best to keep it in its pure form. We became Christians latest in Europe but in reality, it took even longer than the official date states, and despite being dedicated Catholics for centuries we still, we kept a lot of pagan traditions and customs alive through the centuries. Even now in 21 century, I still can't think about something potential bad happening without running to find the wooden object and knocking 3 times on it, to make sure it wouldn't come true.

10:00 sorry but everyone in Lithuania knows why there are crosses on that hill. It was a symbol of Lithuanian resistance to soviet rule, also in memory of those who perished from soviets. and even though it was illegal, crosses would start appearing on there overnight, then get removed by russian govt, then reappear again. The hill was completely bulldozed at least 3 times by the russian government, all in vain. Imagine risking your life/freedom to put a cross on the hill in the middle of the night, in memory of a killed loved one. You'd get a bullet in between the eyes and nobody would bat an eye. People are extremely proud of their resistance to oppressors and there is NOTHING creepy about it unless you are satan's spawn
