Altough I am from the Netherlands and people here do this too (everything east of Germany is not Europe...), it always bothered me we call Eastern Europe eastern! The eastern third of Europe is Russia! Ukraine and the rest of 'eastern' Europe are really central Europe. AFAIK the Poles do this correctly consistently.
