For background I used: Image:LithuaniaPhysicalMap-Clean.svg by user:Knutux . For consistency, German names were used for cities/castles, rivers and lakes. Tribes/clans were named by their most common English names. Note that all boundaries (including rivers and lakes) are approximate. Shoreline was depicted as it is today (it has changed significantly from the 13th century).
