World War II
Cold War
The city was inside the Russian zone of Germany, but as the former Capital of Germany, the city itself was divided into an American Zone (West Berlin) and a Russian Zone (East Berlin). This guaranteed that the two sides would come into contact (and conflict).
It was a nonviolent conflict between the United States and the Soviet Union. It was an attempt to put Berlin under Communist control. It was an attempt by the United States to contain Communism.

The first move was when Joseph Stalin (leader of Russia) ordered the blockage of the land route from Berlin to west Germany. (The Berlin wall.)
The Cold War was called "cold" not for literal reasons, but for figurative reasons. No battles occurred that ended up in bloodshed; the conflict never got "hot", a military term for weapons and troops being armed for battle.
Korean War, was a proxy war.
The Berlin Wall was a symbol of the Cold War
Plenty of weapons were used, but no world war occurred nor were nuclear weapons used in any of the wars that occurred. The cold war was a very strange political and propagandawar between the US & USSR, that included no direct military conflict between them.
