(Soviet satellites)

During the Cold War, Eastern European countries like Poland and Hungary were called Soviet satellites. A satellite is a person, country, or object (such as a moon) whose actions and movement is controlled by a larger, more powerful person, country, or object. During the Cold War, Eastern European countries were called Soviet satellites because they were controlled by the Soviet Union. If these countries tried to act in an independent way, the Soviet Union would send in its army and force them back into line.
