The division of Germany and also Berlin was a result of the Occupation of German at the end of WW2. As part of the surrender, the 4 countries of the Allied powers took control of Germany. Russia wanted to divide the country into sectors so they were in control of one sector. The British, French and US controlled the remainder of German under one sectors. Berlin was also split this way. I hope that is the answer you are looking for.

The Berlin Wall
West Berlin was entirely surrounded by East Germany till the reunification of Germany in 1990.
The Berlin wall is located in Germany and it divided Berlin.
The Berlin wall hampered the reunification of Germany as the two sides became more and more distant. Two people could have been 2 metres away from each other with just the wall in the middle but they were worlds apart.
Berlin was split into East and West in 1945. It remained split into two cities until its reunification with Germany in 1990.
When Germany was first unified, it was Berlin, and continued to be throughout the Weimar Republic and Nazi rule. After 1945, when Germany and Berlin were divided, (East) Berlin became the capital of East Germany. West Germany controlled part of Berlin but did not want to site their government in an enclave. They set up a capital in Bonn, a city of moderate importance. After reunification, the capital was moved to Berlin, however half of the government ministries remain in Bonn. The judiciary is split between Karlsruhe, Kassel and Leipzig.
It was the capital of West Germany. But since Germany's reunification in 1990, east and west, Berlin has been restored as Germany's capital city.
