We all know the political stereotypes of Western versus Eastern Europe and largely how they've arisen. My challenge to you is, without changing WWII or the overall arc of the Cold War (Soviets still collapse around the same time etc), have Western Europe be known as the conservative, reactionary part and Eastern Europe the liberal, open part. Western Europe for this will be France, the UK, the Benelux and Scandinavian nations excluding the Mediterranean countries. Eastern Europe will be all former Warsaw Pact and Yugoslav nations.
