West Europe is splited on NOrthern Europe, Southern Europe.....but fro so many people East Europe is all that is not UK, France, Italy, Germany, SPain..... From Georgia to SLovenia........From Estonia to Serbia....... Eastern Europe as a region has several alternative definitions, whereby it can denote: European countries of the former "Eastern Bloc", or the region lying between the variously and vaguely defined areas of Central Europe and Russia. This new Eastern Europe has become more commonly used to identify the region since the dissolution of the Warsaw Pact, or a homogeneous group of countries which stretches from the Ural mountains or the eastern border of European Russia to: - the current eastern boundary of the European Union. However, many former "Eastern Bloc" are Southeastern Europe/Balkans/ex -Yugoslavia; Central Europe and Northern Europe. Real East Europe: Azerbaijan-euroasia Belarus Georgia-euroasia Moldova Poland Romania Russia Slovakia Ukraine Southeastern Europe/Balkan Peninsula Commonly this definition is expanded to include these other previously communist countries.
