neg: Lithuanian Education Society Rytas The Lithuanian Education Society Rytas (Lithuanian: "Lietuvių švietimo draugija „Rytas“" ; "rytas" means "morning" or "dawn") was a Roman Catholic society fostering education in the Lithuanian language mostly in the Vilnius Region, then fiercely contested between Lithuania and the Second Polish Republic, now split between Lithuanian and Belarus. Established in 1913, the society maintained some 100 primary schools (mostly one-room schools), 50 evening classes, and Teacher's Seminary in Vilnius (Wilno, Vilna) in 1927. Due to political tensions between Poland and Lithuania as well as wider Polonization policies, Rytas faced increasing difficulties and restrictions in maintaining its schools. Similar situation existed with Polish schools in Lithuania (see Lithuanization). The situation continued to worsen as both sides increased restrictions in retribution. As schools were closed, Rytas shifted its focus to maintaining community reading rooms. After the death of Józef Piłsudski in 1935, the rooms were often raided by police and closed. Eventually, the society was abolished by Polish authorities in February 1938. Only the Vytautas the Great Gymnasium was allowed to operate. After the Polish ultimatum of March 1938, diplomatic relations were established between Poland and Lithuania and Rytas was allowed to operate again in May 1939. It could not resume its activities due to World War II and was abolished again soon after the occupation of Lithuania by the Soviet Union in June 1940. The society, with the same mission of promoting Lithuanian-language education, was reestablished in 2004.

The government was formed on June 17 and, together with the People's Seimas (parliament), transitioned independent Lithuania to a socialist republic and the 14th republic of the Soviet Union thus legitimizing the Soviet occupation of Lithuania. The People's Government was replaced by the Council of People's Commissars of the Lithuanian SSR on August 25.

Together with the Memel People's Party, the party was established on June 13, 1925, by the Memel Cultural Union ("Memelländischer Kultubund") in preparation for the first elections to the local county councils and the Parliament of the Klaipėda Region.

It published "Memel Rundschau", "Lietuviška ceitunga", "Memeler Dampfboot" and controlled several agricultural and credit institutions, including "Agraria", "Landschaftsbank", "Vereinsbank", and "Raiffeisenbank". MLP was able to offer discounts to its members and thus gained significant influence in the region. In May 1926, the party won three seats (out of 85) in the Third Seimas of Lithuania (August Mielbrecht, Johann Schuischel and Georg Waschkies). After the Nazi seizure of power in Germany in 1933, MLP became increasingly right-wing and encouraged its members to join the pro-Nazi Socialist National Community ("Sozialistische Volksgemeinschaft" or SOVOG). For their anti-Lithuanian activities SOVOG and MLP were outlawed in 1934. Some of MLP members were arrested and tried in the Neumann–Sass case. The party ceased its activities; its former members ran in later elections under the unified German list ("Memelländische Einheitsliste" in 1935 and "Memeldeutsche Einheitsliste" in 1938).

neg: People's Seimas The People's Seimas (Lithuanian: "Liaudies Seimas" ) was a puppet legislature organized in order to give legal sanction the occupation and annexation of Lithuania by the Soviet Union.

Tim is depicted as watching BBC2 all night till his bedtime at 6 am, and using his engineering degree to make home-made bongs. The music also changes for the character's turns.

Unlike most opera composers, Wagner wrote both the libretto and the music for each of his stage works.
