Looking for information on the Baltics, without wanting to feel like you are in a history class?

With a lively past, untouched countryside, rebirth of national pride and historically preserved cities, there is so much here to entice visitors. Of course the recent past is dominated by those invading Soviets from Russia (the bad boys of the region), fortunately the Balts made sure that their architectural influence was kept to a minimum.

Wanting to know more about Prince Charles' Slap, the Three Second Football Game against Scotland (the Scots won!) and the Dead Centre of Europe? All this and much more.

If nothing else, can you name one famous Latvians, Lithuanians or Estonians? You might surprise yourself.
