Through 1944 that would be Germany, after that Russia controlled and held eastern Europe for decades.
First, terrible way to phrase a question. Second, the ONLY nation with any influence in Eastern Europe was the Soviet Union.
Answer this question…Each region fell under the influence of a foreign superpower.
Europe in 1800's more or less dominated the world.
All of them. The Soviet Union occupied everything from the Russian border to the middle of Germany, and then formed some "puppet" governments to nominally "rule" the nations of eastern Europe, but everything was still controlled from Moscow.
The largest populated country in Eastern Europe is Russia.
No countries dominated Western Europe after WW2 as all Nazi-occupied countries were freed and become independent once more.
