Talk:Eastern European supercentenarians

Defining "Eastern Europe"
Greetings,

I implemented a few changes in the regional lists of supercentnenarians. First of all, I created new articles:

1. "Central European supercentenarians" - List of supercentenarians from the Central-Northern Europe.

2. "Southeastern European supercentenarians" - List of supercentenarians from the Balkan countries.

Here appeared the problem which countries belong to the particular region. As I consider it:

"Central Europe" consists of: Poland, Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia, Czech Republic, Slovakia and Hungary.

"Southeastern Europe" consists of the Balkan countries: Romania, Bulgaria, Croatia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Montenegro, Serbia, Kosovo, Albania and Macedonia.

Therefore, I feel that the term of "Eastern Europe" has to be narrowed to countries which are considered as such. Countries which are not members of the European Union yet and use cyrillic alphabet which bonds them together. That said, I consider Eastern Europe as Russia, Belarus, Ukraine and Moldova. Hence, I made appropriate edits.

Sincerely,

Waclaw Jan Kroczek
