The Kingdom of Lithuania, founded by German Empire during the First World War, had a chance to become great again.

Wilhelm Karl von Urach was elected by the Lithuanian nobility as the new king Mindaugas II. However, the German aristocracy did not want his coronation, so this event never took place and Lithuania became a republic after the end of the Great War.

  1. If anything the treaty would have led to the removal of the German king from Lithuania. Furthermore Poland would have used the interwar period to actively fight Lithuania for land that was considered Polish. Lithuania never would have been more then the small country it is for many different reasons. Plus the Polish nationalist movement was far too strong to allow any kind of German rule. Plus Lithuania during the temporary German rule was largely military controlled anyway.

    The treaty of Versailles still would have seen east prussia remain with germany due to its much larger german majority in comparison to any territory of german population handed over to other countries.
