Pieces like Smetana's "Vltava?"?
I'm looking for other pieces like Smetana's "Vltava." That grandiose sound– a sense of vastness in both size and time– is what I really want. A build is preferred, and I like the Eastern European feel from the minor key. I'm not picky. Modern composers and sources from media like movies are fine. Thanks in advance!

You could try the other five symphonic poems from the cycle 'Má Vlast':
Vyšehrad
Šárka
From Bohemia's Woods and Fields
Tábor
Blaník
And another of his symphonic poems 'Wallenstein's Camp'.
You could also try these symphonic poems by Dvořák:
The Water Goblin, Op 107
The Noonday Witch, Op 108
The Golden Spinning Wheel, Op 109
The Wild Dove, Op 110
A Hero's Song, Op 111
And these by Josef Suk:
A Winter's Tale, Op 9
Raduz & Mahulena, Op 16
Prague, Op 26
A Summer's Tale, Op 29

And these by Vítězslav Novák:

Don't think anything beats Smetana tbh, he stays my favorite in the whole world, but these are some that can be similar
Mendelssohn - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zcogD-hHEYs
Tchaikovski - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QxHkLdQy5f0
The Blue Danube Waltz - Strauss.
Debussy - Claire de Lune https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZIsQPdC9YnY
and again Debussy - Arabesque https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Fle2CP8gR0
Edit: From the media I love the composer Harry-Gregson Williams, he is pretty good :)
