Lithuania is a former republic of the USSR. It is bound by the Baltic Sea to the west, Latvia to the north, Poland and the Kalinigrad Oblast of Russia to the southwest as well as Belarus to the south and east. Topographically, the country is part of the coastal rim of the Russian Plain with moraine and other glacial deposits. The country has two hilly regions, (1.) the Samogitian Hills to the west and (2.) the lake and bog filled hill country of the east. Both of these areas are separated by the Lithuanian Lowlands. The principal river is the Nemunas or Niemen River with its two main tributaries.
