This goal was fought in 1831. and 1863–1864. but only after the First World War did the idea of freedom become real for Lithuanians.
1918 February 16 Lithuania's independence was restored, state borders were restored and freedom was restored. However, it was soon realized that the declaration of independence alone did not guarantee it. We had to fight for the state with a weapon, because external enemies encroached on the lands and sovereignty of the young democratic Lithuania. 1919–1920 The struggle for Lithuania's independence showed that the state and its defenders resisted the armies of the Bolsheviks, Bermontists and Poles and established the freedom and independence they had all sought. During the entire period of defending independence, many important events took place that are worth remembering and appreciating for every Lithuanian citizen.
