The Berlin Blockade was started when the Soviets blocked off the access roads to the city of West Berlin, which is surrounded by Soviet occupied East Germany. This was done in response to the secret monetary reforms being introduced by the 3 countries (USA, Great Britain, France) occupying West Germany.
