Best Answer

No countries became independent in Eastern Europe in the 1980s. Czechoslovakia did not break up until 1990 and the USSR and Yugoslavia did not break up until 1991 (However, Lithuania gained independence from the Soviet Union in 1990).

In the late 1980s, countries in Eastern Europe began to change. The Eastern Bloc was crumbling and communism was falling. Basically, countries just changed politics.
