Notice that Eastern Europe IS NOT the same as Eastern Block, i.e. Poland, Czech, Slovakia, Hungary were part of Eastern Bloc (as communistic states) but have never been in Eastern Europe (but central one or in western cultural circle).

SO

Eastern Bloc: poverty, communism, lack of personal freedom, highly extended health care and education system, central planned economy (inefficient), subjection to USSR (obligatory under the thread of military intervention)

Western Europe: Richness, real democracy, freedom of speech and traveling, lower social expenses, capitalism, subjection to USA (freely).
