The Teutonic Order was independent.

The Teutonic Order was dominated by Germans but it was still clerical in the first place.

The 2nd part of my post refers to when other blood like German is prized over the native blood, for example Romanians have a particular fetish for all things German and also in some former Soviet republics Russlandeutsch blood is prized above the native Slavic stuff, it says a lot about the self-worth of a country.

My first encounter with Lithuanians when I was visiting my grand parents on summer vacation which brings some good memories. Those were more Belarusian than Lithuanian.

My second encounter was a Lithuanian school teacher whom we respected. Yes, we did.

I also met few Lithuanians in Belarus who were Belarusian nationalists. That was nice of them I thought. Those people were autochthonous or children of immigrants. I met some Lithuanians from Lithuania while travelling.

Traditional Lithuanian culture? Well...I like their culture.

Don't know who's more Baltic between Lithuanians and Latvians. They are both Baltic people in my eyes.

My encounters with them were positive.

Also, Lithuanian forum members are good ambassadors for many things related to Lithuania on TA and ABF. Their topics often attract interest from people living in different countries. I am a regular subscriber.
