This isn't an Asian country...

It is not an Asian country, but it is a country where both the majority (Lithuanians) and minorities (mostly people from other European countries) visually look the same. You can distinguish them by languages they speak, which is something we cannot infer from photos on the website.

For example, I am a Croatian expat in Czech Republic. The only way Czechs figure out I'm not one of them is when they try to talk to me in Czech. Tell me how to represent that in a photo.

I would also be a minority in US, but no one would consider me as one only because I'm white. And that's called being racist.
