Ethnographic Lithuania was an early 20th-century concept that defined Lithuanian territories as a significant part of the territories that belonged to Grand Duchy of Lithuania and Lithuanians as all people living on them, regardless of whether those people spoke Lithuanian language and considered themselves Lithuanian. The concept was in contrast to those of "historic Lithuania" – the territories of the Duchy – and the "linguistic Lithuania", the area where Lithuanian language was overwhelmingly spoken. Currently the Republic of Lithuania has no territorial claims.
