How did the fall of the Berlin Wall affect Berlin?
The Berlin Wall The Berlin Wall had first been put up as a sign of communist defiance against the west and was (as Winston Churchill said) like an iron curtain across the whole of Europe. The wall was designed to keep the west out and the pro-capitalists in.The Fall of the Berlin WallThe Berlin Wall fell on November 9th 1989 and signified the unification of the German Democratic Republic (East Germany) and the Federal Republic of Germany (West Germany) and the end of communism in Germany as a whole.What affect did it have on Communism?The fall of the Berlin Wall was showed the Communism was collapsing and that the people of eastern Europe were free from the communist dictatorships that had repressed them for nearly half a century. The Berlin Wall's collapse most likely sped up the collapse of communism in it's builder; the USSR [Union of Soviet Socialist Republics - now Russia]. It also led to the Eastern Block or Communist Block dissolving and becoming capitalist. Without this one significant event the whole process may have taken decades longer.
