The satellite nations are the regions between Germany and russia that were formed with the assistance of the UN after the end of WWII. However, Stalin and the communist Soviet Union took these regions over and operated them under a dictatorship. This is the region that Winston churchill was talking about when he made his "iron curtain" speech. A satellite nation is a nation that appears to be sovereign, but is actually under the control of another nation. Examples would be nations such as Hungary and Poland under the USSR. On the face of it, they seemed to be independent nations, but they were actually under the control of Russia as part of the USSR. A satellite nation is an independent nation effectively dominated by another. The classic Cold War example of this is the Warsaw Pact and the Soviet Union. Virtually all the members of the Warsaw Pact (Poland, Czechoslovakia, Hungary, Bulgaria, etc.) were basically just satellite states of Moscow; in other words, they had to run by all of their decisions with the Soviets in Moscow before they could be implemented. In effect they were provinces of the Soviet Union, that the Soviets didn't have to directly administer.
