History of the Republic of Llithustania.
Over 8 centuries ago, people from France and England and Spain moved to colonize the western peninsula of Europe to claim for their kings. On the year of 1301, As they did, it seemed easier for the French to take over the new land, therefore became a part of France. The region then was then labeled Llithustania. Though after 50 years, the people of the region resulted to violence as they fought for the freedom and independence of there region, realizing the dream of becoming independent, but unfortunately failed. The Litusians lost perilously, and the French were enabled to keep the sovereignty of Llithustania.

By the 1400's, more Portuguese and Spanish refugees, moved to the northern region, some really only trying to escape for a new life. Rich Cultural Diversity is one of the few reasons why the nation had such a rich architectural style, and why the population grew larger by the century. And after years of immigration and new ethnic group developing in the country, the region decided to develop there own language, to prevent language barriers between the several nationalities of immigrants. Amazingly, this nation was completely built up on immigrants from all over Europe. Immigrants continued to pour into the stable region, hoping to find better jobs, and live better lives.

Then In 1591, Llithustania once again declared war on France, trying to gain independence and the right to be a self-governing nation. Spain aided the Litusians (for the reason that they have connections with Spain) along the way, giving no mercy to the french. Fighting the war for 3 years, it ended in a blood bath, and with Llithustania's strong motive with the help of the Spanish, it left France with no option, but to grant Llithustania its freedom. AND Thus Llithustania was born. Government was set into the nation and used the system of Parliament. With this historic milestone unfolding, they had also decided to be a country of freedom and became a Democratic Republic. The first Prime-minster elected into office was Rowaen Villietvoke. He leaded the nation well and served the nation for 12 years (3 terms) until a new Prime-minister was elected in 1603. Politics flourished, but then as some thought, the nation was too large to control by one government, and decided to separate the nation in to 12 states, all divided by rivers and mountain ranges which became state borders. Governors were elected to each state, and smaller local state governments were set, becoming similar to the present United States. Though governors had power of the states, the President did not lose power and was still Head of the Nation. In 1776+, when the United States gained independence from Britain and set the system of Congress, the national government began to discuss the possibility of shifting the nation's system into Congress, A drastic alteration in the nation's government. Some people in the nation welcomed the idea, and trialed the system. In the end the government was satisfied and decided to switch.

Over 3 centuries later, The fear of Dictatorship spread as World War II arrived. It became a reality as the nation failed to sustain, and resist the power of the German forces and lost power in 1941. This left millions confused, and helpless. With Government overthrown, problems set as the national military was harder to control, with only little communication, powerless president, and a failing resistance, the nation gradually fell, and came to a halt. Llithustania suffered severe casualties, both in the military aspect and the economic and political aspects. Unemployment during WWII peaked as millions lost jobs and commerce fell with the closing of hundreds of stores, big and small. The nation fell into an Economic meltdown, and needed assistance from Britain and America which they could not receive. Many Monts after the nations devastating loss and Economic crisis, and fighting battle after battle, the Americans came through from France, liberating the French and Litusians, and restoring order to the nation.

8 centuries, 4 capitals, 43 million people, 3 failed re-trials of parliamentary government, 7 civil wars and 2 World Wars later, the nation had reached it's peak point and it's history rich and full, civil wars that were unnoticed like the Western Independence War, North and South Toltarian War and the Second Western War shaped the nations view and history. Parliament failed in the nation and converted to Congress and the first capital, Europolis, was not the last. The most recent war, the Third Western Civil war found the Crovakia [Western Union] losing to the Litusians as they have little power of there government. After over 50 presidents, the current president now is Theadore Oletviesz.

The Current, modern Llithustania is a bustling society with over 45 million people living in the nation alone. Government remains stable, but with the Economic Recession, leaders try to assure the nation a stable future, and distribute jobs and lower unemployment. But with a rocky history, what will the future paint for the nations upcoming events, and with Communism uprising in the South Toltarian Kingdom's State and the nation preventing the political phenomenon, no one can be sure.

Points of Improvement

- Decide whether it's a monarchy or a republic
- Complete the history in more detail and realism
- Establish a set location that you are happy with and will stick with.

You've gotten all three of these points settled, so you pass the PoI checklist!

Activeness
You log on on most days, and I've seen some posts from you outside your CN section, but not a whole lot. Still, I'd say you're active enough here, so:
Yes

CJ Improvement
Even in your Associate Membership application, your pictures were fantastic, so there wasn't much of a need for improvement.
Yes

Overall CJ Quality
Very high! Every update is phenomenal!
Yes

My one point of critique is your GDP. Given Llithustania's population, it has a GDP per capita of over US$84,000, far higher than even most industrialized nations, and lower than the GDPs per capita of only three RL nations, all very small. I recommend a GDP per capita in the $30,000-50,000 range, which is where most industrialized nations' GDPs per capita fall. However, this isn't a deal-dreaker for me; my overall vote is YES!

OK.. you killed me with the lightning! Awesome! Awesome! You should join us in Skype Chat! We have loads of fun... sharing ideas, idle chit chat, jokes, role play....

It's pretty awesome work! Hope we'll have you as a member states ASAP.

Activeness
You've posted quite regularly, and you've been active via PM as well. You comment on other people's CNs, which is a real morale booster for others, so definitely a yes here.

I agree with Zack here, you really didn't need to improve the CJ at all anyway.
Yes

Overall CJ Quality
One of the highest on here I'd say - you can never predict what you'll show us from Llithustania, it's really amazing.
Yes

I think you were unlucky to get in before we introduced the immediate member statehood vote, because if you had applied under that then this application would never have been necessary, because Llithustania is so fantastic. Two more admin votes needed, as we now have seven admins.
100% YES!

You are online almost daily and post regular updates, though i'd love to see you more active in Off-Topic, Events and getting onto Skype...
Yes

CJ Improvement
Fantastic CJ, I have no further comment because everyone has already summed up the outstanding detail you put in and quality above.

One more vote is still needed... (hint to other admins)
