It gives a general introduction to the physical, ethnic and religious composition of the region; includes summary maps of Eastern Europe in 1900, 1923, 1945 and 1994; charts the ebb and flow of the First and Second World Wars in Eastern Europe; presents detailed information relating to constituent territories, elections, economic developments, land-holding patterns for key individual countries in the inter-war years; provides social and economic data, evidencing changes under communist domination; and gives maps of the new states of the post-communist years, with details of elections and economic indicators for Albania, Belarus, Bosnia-Hercegovina, Croatia, the Czech Republic, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Macedonia, Moldova, Slovakia and others.
