b. Countries

d. Eastern

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: if you really  really absolutely want to include a colon in this sentence (but you don't have to) then it should be after the word "include" - option a. : Countries in Eastern Europe include: Bulgaria, Poland, Belarus, and Ukraine.

But I think that it is better without a colon, and option c. is better!
