An iron curtain.
It is a metaphor coined by Winston Churchill in the years after WW 2, when the Soviet-dominated Communist countries in eastern Europe closed their borders to Western Europe to their own citizens. It was as though the Communist countries were behind a curtain, an iron curtain.

The Iron Curtain was a term coined by Winston Churchill to describe the ideological and physical boundary dividing Europe during the Cold War, separating the Communist countries of Eastern Europe from the capitalist countries of Western Europe. It symbolized the division between Eastern and Western blocs and the restrictions on information and movement imposed by Communist regimes.
The iron curtain was a product of the Soviet union and the spread of communism through eastern europe through the 1950s and 60s. There was a gigantic ideological and economical divide between communist eastern european countries and the capitalist western european countries. The communist countries were believed to be behind an "iron curtain" as Winston Churchill put it. The biggest physical symbol of this was the Berlin Wall.
Eastern European countries became communist, which was a political ideology modernized by the USSR.
Haha. I saw this in my homework. Well it is simple. The west is more rich because the countries in eastern Europe used to be communist, and the leaders of the eastern European countries still have communist.
