Lithuania occupies an area of 65,300 square kilometers (25,200 sq mi). In comparison, this makes it larger than Belgium, Denmark, or Latvia. The country lies between 53.5°N and 56°N latitude so the climate is mostly temperate. But it’s mostly maritime and wet, transitioning to continental within the interior.

The land is highly fertile, with small lakes scattered around the country.  For example, its largest lake is Lake Drūkšiai at 44.8 square kilometers (17.3 sq mi). Whereas its longest river is the Nemunas at 917 km (570 mi) in length. Although estimates vary, forests cover anywhere from 33 to 37% of the total land area.
