 The initialism of the Lithuanian SSR is shown only in the Lithuanian language – LTSR, for "Lietuvos Tarybų Socialistinė Respublika".The coat of arms differed little from those of Estonian, Latvian, Moldavian or other soviet socialist republics.In November 1988, the Supreme Soviet of the Lithuanian SSR replaced the Soviet flag with the tricolor flag of Lithuania and the Soviet anthem with "Tautiška giesmė".
