How Eastern and Central Europe Transformed into Economic Powerhouses

Grecian eastern

The success of the West is in the prolonged looting of the other natioms, is in the Easterners skilled workforce and in the professional mass media manipulations. Remember that all Westerners ALWAYS point fingers to the East for everything bad while they are hiding their mess with great ability. In UK, half of the population is retarded, a big procentege never work, the country is a ruin and ppl are scummy. Despite all that, UK twist and change story with ease in order to survive.

None of those countries are "hosting" large numbers of uninvited immigrants with low or no skills. Neither do they allow work able people to claim "sickness" benefits as a career choice. Without these unproductive groups they already have a great advantage over decaying and more established economies.

This is so horribly researched it makes me sick. Nothing here is factual. Yes these countries are doing well but this video is tantamount to fake news.

All these countries are run by Washington

Im Romanian 🇷🇴, and i can really confirm that this is true !
In Romania truly the life is very good !🇷🇴

handsome i hope you know that you oversize europian union a bit

Yeah , I was in Portugal 3 years ago, just returned from Brazil , and earlier this year visited Vietnam and Thailand ( best food there) , ..and few other countries ( see my handle :-) so I think I did learn “ my lesson” ,.. many times ;-)
And, my conclusion is quality food is VERY good indicator of good living

Bulgaria not really a part of this economic boom, but thanks for including us by default 😂

No Central Europe

Middle class in the west is getting smaller and smaller, most working families cannot even afford a home, even though their gdp is higher but that gdp is mostly shared by the rich and the affluent people. In east europe most people have a home or can buy a home . Most people in the west live on a monthly basis with not much savings. A. comparison between west and east is all relative...

I am a Bulgarian American. Over the last 3 decades Bulgaria changed completely. Same can be said for the rest of our neighbors from the former Eastern Bloc. Once our countries got free from the Soviet presence and occupation the socioeconomic climate changed for the better. However the toxic Russian influence can still be felt and will take another generation to completely rid of it.

yea but why u showing black people in these montages? there are no black ppl in europe. you should be more culturally sensitive tbh

Long live Romania!❤❤❤🇷🇴🇷🇴🇷🇴

Things are a bit strange right now. Inflation is making the US dollar weaker for buying things, but it's getting stronger against other stuff. So, stuff like stocks, houses, crypto, and precious metals aren't doing so great because folks are putting their money into dollars for safety. I'm worried about my $320,000 savings losing value fast.

All these videos promoting eastern europe economic rise are psyops to influence migrants to leave west and go for the east also

The flag accuracy i this video is probably same as the factual one.

Poland's flag is incorrect in the video. It should be corrected!

"access to fast internet" ... right, the government did that :) not the private citizens who in 2003-2004 broke the law and first connected illegally to each other in "rețele de cartier/neighborhood networks", then connecting those networks to the internet when there were enough people to pay for a commercial ISP connection ... the consumer ISPs were asking for 500USD/month for a 250kb connection.

East winner of political corruption, and many ugly secrets came from the past..

In my opinion, the EU didn't bring any benefits to Bulgaria and the people of the country except for making politicians more corrupt Unlike in PRB.

need to consider that this grow is also due to the help of western Europe…

Aging and brain drain. Sorry but look at 'western europe' its a shithole, dangerous shithole. Yes the GDP may be lower in estern or central europe but these countries are one of the safest in the world, multicultural dangers, no commie nonsense, no leftist bullsit as all these countries experience communism and can tell when they see it.

Better to work in prague and go safely out at night instad of having higher sallary in frace and being robbed or stabbed.


I'm ok to keep the GDP/2 but western europe can keep their migrants.

Everyone compares east vs west in these videos I've seen. But a east vs south is a more logical and interesting comparison. As one is part of EU for much longer and not necessarily doing better

Well... You use random films to show so called 'Eastern Europe'. Is there anything like Eastern Europe any longer? I doubt it. The same like there was no more Vichy state in France 25 years after the end of WW2. Not to mention that almost a half of Germany you could call 'Eastern European'. Also I would be very careful about the information you deliver, e.g. there has been no company called Semeko Okmess (mentioned with some American mall pictures from 60ties which made it double funny) or anything similar in Poland. At least you could spell name 'Balcerowicz' properly if you do your research. Why don't you mention about corruption in the West? This is probably one of the obstacles for the western growth, together with a lack of skilled/active workers and dilapidated infrastructure.

We are producing most cars per capita in the world even tho we don't have any car manufacturer but that only shows us that we are slaves to Western Europe and other much wealthier parts of the world as well as other post - communistic countries 😢

Bulgaria and Romania brothers forever

... once again... The Czech Republic is in no way close to beginning "eastern Europe" it is geologically in the WEST, and it has historically always been part of Western culture/influence. I understand that the average person is clueless about anything before WW2(not that they would be anyhow good in WW2 history either) but that doesn't mean you just gonna pretend like this history never happened. The emperor of the holy empire (HRE) lived in the Czech Republic... how does that have anything to do with Eastern culture... And videos like this make even bigger fools of people.

East European countries are just NEW TAX HAVENS... Portugal, Spain and Greece are treated worse than these countries and will soon get poorer. A SHAME.

This video is such a low quality. Nonexistant supermarket network in Poland, EU map presenting Ukraine as a part of it, and you can't even remove fake opacity background from the very same map.

Good video

But

What about the european structural funds, what about the monetary protectionnism (which is smart) for all of those country (except Slovakia), what about Schengen and 4 europeans liberties ...

Eastern europe isnt growing by its own, but by exploiting the situation inside the EU. Tbh I dont blame those states, I blame the west to let that happen

Ah, and you forgot to mention the role of germanic hinterland

Poor quality material

I am from Slovakia. There is one important point to realize. That economic results are because of foreign capital, foreign know how and management skills. If we should do the same allone it will be catastrophe. On the other hand western countries can find out for centuries great ideas and technical inventions. We just copy and learn.

Slovakia 4 million people + 1.5 million vychodniarov

You should consider power purchase parity actually

Once again, Croatia is neither here nor there.

Wher are DEDERONS? DDR....

Poland and Romania may be success stories, but the rest are doing either average or outright terribly.

Economic powerhouse? Yeah....right. In Hungary - where I live - the median net salary is €800 a month. While the food, entertainment, cars, clothes etc. cost almost the same, or in many cases even more than in the richest countries. The entire country is owned by western corporations and they take out more profits than what the country receives from the EU in aids.
I work in finance for a multinational company in the capital, this would be a high income job in Western countries, yet I can't even afford to buy a 5 year old car with my €1k a month salary.

I think we in Western Europe (I´m from Scandinavia) would love for Eastern Europe to keep catching up. It´s not a competition in our minds, since we see you as part of the family. If you are stronger, we are stronger as well.

Living in Romania and judging by comments from other countries, the data in this video is way off 😂😂

Hungary is leaching from the EU and sucking up to Putin simultaneously.

Those are not post soviet but post communist coutries

Eastern Europe is already well ahead most of the rest of the world.

bullshit, it's only one answer: chip workforce.
