History Encounters unearths the greatest stories with the major events from The Berlin Wall to expand reader horizons for readers to be best informed.
The Berlin Wall was the concrete manifestation of the Iron Curtain, which signified the profound ideological difference between the capitalist, democratic Western powers and the socialist, communist Soviet Union.
After WWII ended, the Allied Powers carved up defeated Germany into four blocks. They did the same to Berlin. While Russia had been part of the Allies in the war, tensions soon arose between these old allies, and the Berlin Wall was established to keep the East Berliners from seeking a brighter life in the West. The USSR claimed it was for the moral protection of its East Berlin citizens, but, in reality, it was just to stop East Berlin from hemorrhaging skilled workers to the West.
