Did France hold a part of the Berlin Wall?
Well, kind of. During the Cold War Berlin was an occupied city--there were foreign military forces there and they formed the official government of Berlin. (The reality in West Berlin was a little different: while the US Commander Berlin, British Commander Berlin and French Commander Berlin were the governor of the city on a rotating basis, all power had been handed over to the Lord Mayor of Berlin.) West Berlin was occupied by the United States, the British and the French. France held the northern districts--in some ways the most important because West Berlin's airport was the French Air Force base of Tegel; Britain held the middle sectors; and the United States held the southern sectors. The Soviets held all of the eastern sectors.

Before reunification what divided into East Germany and West Berlin Germany?
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.
What happened on the following months of d-day?
Well, after D-day, the American, British,and Canadian forces liberated France from the Nazis. After that, the Western Powers had their eyes on Germany and made efforts to head there. The Western Powers began entering Berlin from the West while the Soviet Army was coming from the East, practically just 40 miles away. Once they got there, they began bombing raids and over 25,000 tons were thrown over Berlin! 95% of Berlin was in ruins while 5% avoided it. Then the Americans, British, French and Soviets divided Germany into four sectors. Each for one of the Allies. Berlin was also divided into four sectors too, but deep within the Soviet sector.Side note: The American, British and French sector became West Germany while the Soviet sector was East Germanyunder communism. Then the Berlin Wall was built to separate West Berlin from Communist East Berlin.
Why was berlin divided into 4 zones?
The city of Berlin was in the middle of the Soviet zone. The Soviet zone is the part of German that ended up becoming Communist East Germany. But then in the city of Berlin you had occupation as well except in the city they were called 'sectors'. And just like the Soviet zone, the Soviet sector of Berlin ended becoming East Germany (the capitol, in fact). However the American, British and French sectors in the west part of the city stayed 'free' after the whole Berlin Blockade/Airlift debacle of 1948 and ended up a part of West Germany, although the capitol was moved to Bonn, and Berlin always had special legal and political status applied.
Did the Soviets control the east side of Germany?
East Berlin and West Berlin are in Germany, not the Soviet Union. The city of Berlin was divided into four "sectors" after World War II. The Soviets got the eastern third of the city. The French got a small sector in the north of Berlin, the British got the middle part and the Americans the south.

What was the us response when Soviets blocked Berlin?
( The U.S. flew supplies to Berlin.) After World War II, the Allies divided Germany into four zones of occupation. The U.S., U.S.S.R., France, and Great Britain agreed that each would govern one of the zones until the Germans were prepared to rule themselves. The Allies also decided to divide Germany's capital, Berlin, into four sectors, or parts. Each sector of Berlin would also be governed by one of the four Allied powers. The Soviet sector of the city was called East Berlin while the U.S., French, and British sectors were called West Berlin.Since Berlin was located inside the Soviet zone of Germany, the Americans, British, and French had to pass through the Soviet zone to get to their part of Berlin. This was not supposed to be a problem. When the Allies first decided to divide Germany into zones, the Soviets promised to allow the Americans, British, and French to move freely across their zone and into West Berlin.But serious problems developed in 1947. On the excuse that they were repairing roads and railroad tracks, the Soviets kept cars, trucks, and trains from crossing their zone. But the truth of the matter was that the Soviets wanted to cut off all food shipments to West Berlin. The Soviets hoped their Berlin blockade would force the Americans, British, and French to leave their part of Berlin.Many people in the Free World considered the Soviet blockade of Berlin an act of aggression. Many feared that the Berlin blockade would lead to World War III.
