Description: This is the Iron Curtain from the late 1950s up to the late 1980s. Created by Vernes Seferovic. Warsaw Pact countries to the east of the Iron Curtain are shaded red; NATO members to the west of it — blue. Militarily neutral countries − grey. Yugoslavia, although communist-run, was independent of the Eastern Bloc and founded the Non-Aligned Movement in 1961; communist Albania broke with the Soviet Union in the late 1950s, aligning itself with the People's Republic of China after the Sino-Soviet split; Austria was de-occupied and declared itself neutral in 1955.
