The European Union was founded by Western European countries while Eastern European countries were still occupied by the Soviet Union.
No Eastern European countries were members of the European Union in 1993. The EU did not expand to the east until 2004 when nine Eastern European countries (with one Western European nation) joined the EU.
Eastern Europe is only full of Eastern European countries. That means there are no Western European countries, Latin American countries, Subsaharan countries, East Asian countries, etc. in Eastern Europe.
Eastern European countries became communist, which was a political ideology modernized by the USSR.
Many countries from Eastern Europe have joined the European Union since 2004. This makes it easier for them to travel to other European countries to get work. A lot of people from eastern European countries have travelled to countries in western Europe where there is more work, so a lot of eastern Europeans have gone to the United Kingdom.
At the Yalta Conference, Winston Churchill, Franklin Roosevelt, and Joseph Stalin agreed that all of the countries liberated from Nazi occupation should be granted free elections. Sadly, Stalin did not honor his promise and occupied the Eastern European countries that he liberated.
Eastern European countries have more environmental issues, such as the Ukraine, Russia, or Romania.
He turned over control of Eastern European countries to their Communist parties and prevented free and fair elections. This made these countries satellites to be controlled by Moscow, and their populations slaves to the party bosses.
Probably not, the Soviet Union would have had to let Eastern European countries, such as Poland, to have free, democratic governments, and they would not.
