WHAT DOES BALTICS MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Baltics

Baltic states

The Baltic states are three northern European countries east of the Baltic Sea – Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania, which gained independence from the Russian Empire in the wake of World War I. In the period between the World Wars, the Baltic states also included Finland. While the indigenous populations of Latvia and Lithuania are known as Baltic peoples, those of Estonia are Finnic peoples. Another Baltic identity, Baltic German, began to develop during the Middle Ages after the Livonian Crusade. Linguistic and historical considerations intersect defining the concept of "Baltic states"; for example, while Latvian is phylogenetically related to Lithuanian Estonian belongs to a completely different family – the Uralic languages. At the same time, despite considerable linguistic proximity, Latvia and Lithuania have gone different ways for most of their history, Lithuania at one point forming a commonwealth with Poland, giving rise to one of the largest countries in Europe at the time, Latvia, in turn, sharing most of its history with Estonia, both being governed by a Baltic German élite for almost a millennium.
