##plugins.themes.bootstrap3.article.main##
Abstract
This article reveals the tools for realization of the independence by the Lithuanian Council upon declaration of independence of Lithuania in 1918, i.e. the institutionalization of it with a purpose to take over the state authority from the German occupant administration. The Lithuanian Council formed by the Vilnius Conference of 21 September 1917 was of a social political nature. While acting as an institution representing the Lithuanian community it had, upon an assignment by the Conference, to prepare the conditions for recovering the state. Meanwhile the German occupant administration considered the Council as an endorsed secondary institution, which they hoped to use for their own purposes.
