Question
Explain briefly about the Berlin crisis.

Answer

  • The First and Second World Wars, which led to the defeat of Germany in World War II.
  • Germany's economic, social and political backbone collapsed.
  • Germany was not a leader who could sit back.
  • Thus, the war ended and the Jamuna was divided into four administrative divisions.
  • West Germany and East Germany (communist) two independent states came into existence.
  • This further complicated the Berlin question.
  • The capital Berlin also fell.
  • With the unification of the three western divisions of Germany, the three divisions of Berlin were also merged.
  • In April 1948, the Soviet Union declared a blockade of Berlin in protest of the process, resulting in intense tensions between the West and the Soviet Union.
  • During this time a 42 km long wall was built separating West Berlin and East Berlin.
  • Which is considered a symbol of the Cold War.
