Land and Resources
    Lithuania consists of a low-lying plain broken by low hills in the west and south. Almost the entire territory of the country is less than 200 m (about 655 ft) in elevation. Lithuania contains many lakes and rivers, 22 of which have a total length of 100 km (about 60 mi) or more. The most extensive of these is the Nemunas (Neman), a major river that supplies the country with hydroelectric power. Marshes and swamps are prevalent, especially in the north and west, although half of all original wetlands have been drained. The climate is dominated by marine influences, but conditions are more variable in the eastern portion of the republic. In the west summers are cooler, and winters are milder. Average annual precipitation ranges from less than 600 mm (about 20 in) per year in the center of the country to more than 850 mm (about 35 in) per year in the west. Forests, which occupy about one-fourth of total land area, support an extensive array of wildlife, including deer, wolves, foxes, and wild boar. Minor oil and gas deposits have been found near the coast, and offshore areas may contain much larger deposits.
