Summary / Abstract:
ENAs Lithuania celebrates the anniversary of the city of Vilnius, which was first mentioned in written sources seven hundred years ago, it is only fitting to remember ruler Gediminas, the founder of Vilnius, the capital of Lithuania. It is also worth remembering the titles of Lithuanian rulers before and after Gediminas. Were they titled only grand dukes of Lithuania? Or did Lithuania have more kings? These are not new questions. They have come up every now and then. [Extract, p. 5]
