If Lithuania want to keep their position as the heirs to Rome then they need to get freaky how the romans did.

TIL about Lithuania just straight up lying about their claim as heirs to Rome, and ya know what?

I respect it. It's honestly the most Roman thing possible, just fucking lying to fuck with people.

Honestly, are you even a European nation of you don't claim to be the heir of the Roman Empire?

To be honest it was probably an attempt to appear as a legitimate European country instead of a gang of savages that the Teutons were trying to paint them as.

Palemonid Gediminid connection is not only a myth, it's also kinda silly.
