Russia, Ukraine, Belorussia,

However, Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania whilst not part of the USSR , wqere tightly controlled by the USSR.

Other countries under USSR influence were Poland, Czechoslovakia, Hungary, Bulgaria, Roumania. They all formed part of a political and trading alliance known as 'Comminterm'. or 'Commecon'. They were separated from the rest of Europe by what Sir Winston Churchill named as the 'Iron Curtain'.

All of these countries were controlled by Moscow (USSR). They had nominal politicians, bu they had to work by the direction of the Communist Party in Moscow.

Any of these countries that wanted more (political) freedom, were severely curtailed by having USSR armanenets sent in to control the population. The notable uprising, were Hungary (1956) , the'Prague Spring', under Alexander Dubcek. And The shipyard strikes led by Lech Walesa in Gdansk , Poland )1989). This last one finally opened Eastern Europe, together with a change of leadership in Moscow, with Mikhail Gorbachev, and his policies of Glasnost , and Perestroika.
