So he sorta left ya hanging huh?
Following the defeat of the Nazis, the Allies divided Germany into four zones, an arrangement that didn’t satisfy the militaristic interests of the Soviets. Following the Soviet blockade of West Berlin and the subsequent Berlin Airlift, the Federal Republic of Germany was established in the West and the Soviet-dominated German Democratic Republic was founded in the East. Eventually the Soviets reacted by sealing the border between East and West Berlin For the next 28 years the wall stood not only as a barrier to those seeking freedom, but as a symbol of the divide between East and West.

So on the chilly evening of Nov. 9, 1989, the world watched as people danced and fireworks exploded and guards stood silently aside as they tore down that wall.
And the world was changed forever.

I hope you get an A! ^3^
