Eastern Europe

Proper noun

 * 1) A socio-politic geographical area of eastern Europe usually including the European countries to the east of Germany, Austria and Italy, and to the west of the Urals. However, a less common definition of the region excludes the Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland, Slovakia, the Baltic states and some parts of the Balkans - placing them in Central Europe instead.

Usage notes
The boundaries of Eastern Europe are not always clearly defined. "Overlapping" occurs in such cases as those of the Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland, Slovakia, the Baltic states, and the Balkans. Similarly, most mainstream definitions of Eastern Europe include the former communist nations of the Caucasus, although there are a few sources that list them as transcontinental or Eurasian.
