Answer: The term "Iron Curtain" is used to describe a "wall" between Western Europe and Eastern Europe. During the Cold War, Eastern European nations (with the exception of Yugoslavia) were sort of the Soviet Union's puppets.

The conflict began in 1991 when Croatia and Slovenia seceded from the Republic of Yugoslavia. This was followed by the war in Bosnia that took place in 1992 and the war in Kosovo in 1998. Even though the time line was consistent with the fall of the Soviet Union, none of these things were directly related to the fall of the Iron Curtain.
