Belarus, a landlocked country surrounded by Latvia, Lithuania, Poland, Ukraine and Russia, was formerly known as Byelorussia, Belorussian or White Russia. It was part of Lithuania in the 13th century, absorbed by Poland in the 16th century, and incorporated by Russia in 1795. Became a member of the U.S.S.R. in 1922. Declared an independent republic and a member of the Commonwealth of Independent States in 1991. For a more detailed country profile, see CIA World Factbook on Belarus.
