Summary

Description
English: A map showing the distributions of the various languages spoken and associated ethnic groups in Lithuania Minor in the year 1905, as well as major rivers, forests, moorlands, and towns. The interwar and modern borders are also visible.

As the southwestern boundaries of Lithuania Minor have been variously defined over the years, I chose a border following the course of major rivers, roughly corresponding to lands where Lithuanian had been commonly spoken at the start of the 19th century.

All settlements mapped and sorted according to the following document:
