Explanation: weight of the past is very strong which is visible also in central and eastern Europe where nationalists and communists are still present and where many people view WW II still in the same way as they were taught before 1989.

These two perspectives are present everywhere - one conservative, linked to the past (Communism, Eastern Block, Warsaw Pact etc.), another progressive (NATO, EU, globalization). Defensive attitudes of these nations (or a big part of its populations) result from the past of these countries. One of the best representants of this is Viktor Orban (Hungarian politician).
