Ever since the collapse of the Soviet Union, and even before so, the economy of Eastern Europe was in shambles. After the collapse, there was high unemployment, drops in population, slow economic growth, etc. Some former Soviet countries are still in tough economic times from the collapse of the Soviet Union, and the current European debt crisis isn't helping. However, people generally remained joyful and optimistic, simply because they had finally defeated communism and were able to switch to democracy.

The industrial nations in Europe needed to expand their economies so as to improve trade between them and other continents. This is what was commonly referred to as imperialism.

Eastern Europe
Western Europe (Eastern part of the Roman Empire did not collapse and became known as the Byzantine Empire) went into a period of chaos, then arose in the feudal society (Middle Ages)
Communism (classless stateless society based on production for use and democratic control) never existed in Eastern Europe. The fall of the Berlin Wall symbolised the end of state capitalism.
I believe its Eastern Europe was turbulent with governmental upheavals, protests, and significant changes.
There were more than two. The first obvious ones would be the democratization of eastern European nations and their transitions from state-controlled to liberal market economies. Further consequences would include the dissolution of the Warsaw pact and the integration of eastern European nations into organizations such as NATO and, very importantly, the EU.

Generally speaking, the non-communist nations of Western Europe were doing well in comparison to nations where Stalin had established communist governments in much of Eastern Europe. The free market policies of the West were yielding better economic growth then the centrally planned economies of Eastern Europe. The US helped to jump start the economies of Western Europe through the Marshall Plan.
The Eastern European Nations were controlled by the Soviet Union, a communist government, and they did not have self-rule nor could they have free trade with the rest of the world as the Western European nations did. The USSR also refused help from the democratic western nations so they did not have all that help to fix up and grow the economies of the Eastern Nations.
