Briefly explain how most Eastern European countries became satellites of the Soviet Union after the end of World War II.

By the end of World War II, the Soviet army had pushed Germany out of Eastern Europe and was already in control of the region. Though the Soviet Union promised free elections in Eastern European countries, it soon installed (and dominated) communist governments there. The countries of Eastern Europe thus became Soviet satellites.

Explain what Solidarity was and how it brought change to Eastern Europe. Use standard grammar, spelling, sentence structure, and punctuation.

Solidarity was a group of Polish trade unions that joined together to strike and put pressure on the government to change. It was a movement of moral renewal that was helped by the election of Pope John Paul II. Solidarity wanted to be free of communism, with more freedoms for everyone. When the Polish government declared Solidarity illegal, it went underground and became a secret organization. When Gorbachev came to power in the Soviet Union, his new policies opened the door for more change in Eastern Europe. In Poland, Solidarity was legalized in the late 1980s, and then the communist government was voted out of power.
