Are there certain factors that lead to this?

Roughly it's probably: eastern Europe is poor because of its communist past, Portugal because of its remoteness and too hot climate?

Just wildly guessing, I don't have a scientific explanation.

*Eastern Europe is poor because of the criminal privatisation of public property and society in general AKA economic shock therapy.
