History fits the majority of Eastern European countries but yes as said they are Estonian. Actually, now that I think about it can't really think of any Eastern European countries that it doesn't fit at all.
Eastern Europe had finally just stabilized a little bit it looked like. They’ve consistently gotten the short end of the stick from the superpowers in the region using their territory for war.
Hopefully after Ukraine is over (with Ukraine keeping all their land) there will be some stability in the region again
Living next to Russia has never been easy. Living between Russia and Western powers has been worse. I'm Finnish and while we have not really seen ourselves as Eastern Europeans for a long time, we are. Just got lucky past century.
