Berlin. It was divided because the Russian military arrived in Berlin first and then the allies arrived. In the settlement with the Russians they were given one sector and the allies kept 3 sectors. The Russian sector became East Germany and the allied sectors became West Germany. The Russian built the Berlin Wall to keep people in East Germany and it came down in 1989.
