context: Title: Parliament of the Klaipėda Region
  Passage: The Parliament of the Klaipėda Region ("Chamber of Representatives of the Memel Territory", Lithuanian: "Seimelis" ) was the parliament of the Klaipėda Region (Memel Territory), an autonomous region of Lithuania.  The parliament was established by the Klaipėda Convention of 1924 and the first elections took place in October 1925.  In all elections pro-German parties received more than 80% of the vote.  The major parties included the Memel Agricultural Party ("Memelländische Landwirtschaftspartei" or MLP), Memel People's Party ("Memelländische Volkspartei" or MVP), and Social Democratic Party of the Memel Territory ("Sozialdemokratische Partei des Memelgebietes" or SPM).  The pro-German parliament often clashed with the pro-Lithuanian Klaipėda Directorate (executive branch of local government) and the first three parliaments were dismissed before the end of their full three-year term.  The parliament was disbanded after the ultimatum of March 1939 and subsequent Nazi German takeover of the region.
  Title: Prussia (region)
  Passage: Prussia (Old Prussian: "Prūsa", German: "Preußen" , Lithuanian: "Prūsija" , Polish: "Prusy" ) is a historical region stretching from Gdańsk Bay to the end of Curonian Spit on the southeastern coast of the Baltic Sea, and extending inland as far as Masuria.  The territory and inhabitants were described by Tacitus in Germania in AD 98, where Suebi, Goths and other Germanic people lived on both sides of the Vistula River, adjacent to Aesti (further east).  About 800–900 years later the Aesti were named Old Prussians, who since AD 997 repeatedly successfully defended against take-over attempt by the newly created Duchy of the Polans.  The territory of the Old Prussians and neighboring Couronians and Livonians was unified politically in the 1230s as the Teutonic Order State.  Prussia was politically divided in the period 1466-1772, with western Prussia under protection of the crown of Poland-Lithuania and eastern Prussia a Polish fief until 1660.  The unity of both parts of Prussia remained preserved by retaining its borders, citizenship and authonomy until western and eastern Prussia were also politically re-united under the Kingdom of Prussia.  It is famous for many lakes, as well as forests and hills.  Since the military conquest by the Soviet Army in 1945 and the expulsion of the inhabitants it divided between northern Poland (most of the Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship), Russia's Kaliningrad exclave, and southwestern Lithuania (Klaipėda Region).  The former German state of Prussia (1701–1947) derived its name from the region.

It was placed under provisional French administration until a more permanent solution could be worked out.  Lithuania wanted to unite with the region (part of Lithuania Minor) due to its large Lithuanian-speaking minority of Prussian Lithuanians and major port of Klaipėda (Memel) – the only viable access to the Baltic Sea for Lithuania.
