To settle the problem the Western powers and the Russians agreed that Berlin would be divided into four sections for each nation. The Western nations combined to make West Berlin and West Germany while the Russians took the area that became known as East Berlin and East Germany. This was the start of the cold war.

The people of East Germany could not freely cross the border or visit family until 1989 when the wall came down.
