That's a bit different though. Most Slavic countries were part of the Eastern Bloc. Hard to have a bigger generation gap than the fall of the Iron Curtain.

Well, my grandma lived through Petersburg’s blockade (she were about 5 at the time). My parents lived through the fall if the Iron Curtain.

I don’t think we ever had a name for it, but those generational differences were implied.
