Editing Eastern Europe (section)

====Central Europe====
{{main|Central Europe}}
The term "Central Europe" is often used by historians to designate states formerly belonging to the [[Holy Roman Empire]], the [[Habsburg monarchy|Habsburg Empire]], and the [[Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth]].

In some media, "Central Europe" can thus partially overlap with "Eastern Europe" of the Cold War Era. The following countries are labelled Central European by some commentators, though others still consider them to be Eastern European.<ref name=wallace>Wallace, W.
