Eastern Europe

Eastern Europe is the eastern half of the European continent which had been aligned with the Soviet Union during the Cold War. It is made up primarily of Slavic Countries, Hungary, and the Baltic States. The post-Soviet transition for democracy has been successful in some Eastern European States, but more difficult in those closer to Russia.
