Abstract
This project examines the 1923 Klaip?da Uprising as a key moment in Lithuania’s nation-building process. Framed by centuries of resistance to foreign rule, it explores how language, culture, and identity fueled grassroots mobilization in reclaiming the Klaip?da region. Drawing on historical sources and personal family narratives, the study argues that the uprising was not merely territorial—it was an assertion of sovereignty rooted in shared memory and cultural continuity.
