How Children in a Maya Village Do Chores

I'm from central-eastern Europe and I feel the same. I've spent a few years in Latin America and I'd call both the regions "new" or "satellite" or "not-core" West. Germany or the US may be the original core West, but LatAm and CEEurope are West, too.

Whether to include also Russia, that would be my question.

Russia is certainly out since they don't share even the same alphabet.

Yeah, I guess alphabet is out too. It's abecedary in the West!

Russia is not part of, nor "recently" founded from, nor relatively heavily influenced by, Western Europe.

I don't know why there's a rush to identify as Western; usually it's used pejoratively.
