The correct statement that explains the expansion of democracy in Eastern Europe in the last decade of the twentieth century is:

the collapse of the Communist Bloc and the emergence of independent states in Eastern Europe.

This period was marked by a series of political changes that led to the fall of communist regimes across the region, ultimately resulting in greater democratic freedoms and the establishment of independent democratic states.
