2011: East and West Germany reunited after 45 years they split.
Before reunification in 1990 West Germany consisted of ten states plus West Berlin, while the states in East Germans had been dissolved in 1952. They were revived in 1990 (five states) and East and West Berlin became one state. The states of West Germany were set up with their present borders in the late 1940s, and apart from the union of two states in SW Germany have remained stable since 1952.
The religion of the west was Latin Christianity (this was the original name of Roman Catholicism). The religion in the east was Orthodox Christianity. These were the two main versions of Christianity. There were many other versions as well, including Arianism, which was very popular in the Late Empire. The two mentioned religions opposed the other versions and worked to establish their dominance. This difference in the religions of the west and east already existed long before the empire split.
The Soviet blockade of West Berlin, known as the Berlin Blockade lasted from 24 June 1948 - 12 May 1949.
The German Democratic Republic (GDR), which was also called East Germany. was a satellite of the Soviet Union. The GDR ceased to exist when Germany was reunified in 1990. For a long time the Federal Republic of Germany (FRG) - West Germany was politically very close to the U.S.
Historically, Berlin was the capital of the Prussia for centuries. When Prussia led the unification of Germany, it was natural that the Prussian capital would become the capital of the newly unified country. After World War II, East Berlin remained the capital of East Germany, but it became unwieldy as a capital for West Germany because of its being an enclave in East German territory. However, when Germany reunified in 1989, Berlin was reinstated as the capital of a united Germany as a nod to the historical nature of the city.
East Berlin (Germany) became democratic as part of the reunification of East with West Germany in 1990. With the fall of the Berlin Wall and the release of Soviet control over East Germany, the long-separated halves of the German nation, including East Berlin, merged to form the Federal Republic of Germany.
No, at a mere 96 miles long, it only physically separated East from West for 38 years.

The Berlin Wall was to prevent all citizens of East Germany from escaping East Germany by going to West Berlin. It was built in 1961, long after the Holocaust, and had nothing to do with any distinction between Jews or Non-Jews, but rather East German citizens and West German citizens.

No. Previously, Berlin was the capital of Prussia.Prior to Berlin, Germany as a whole did not have a capital city as it was split into several independent states, as opposed to today's unified nation.The Holy Roman Empire ruled over the land we now know as Germany during the Middle Ages and both Vienna (Austria) and Frankfurt (Germany) were considered as centralised cities.From 1949 to 1990, Germany was divided between East Germany (GDR) and West Germany, with the West German capital at Bonn.
It separated East and West Germany ---------------- It separated, more exactly, East from West Berlin, the latter having been an enclave in what was previously East Germany. The much longer border between West and East Germany was also closely watched but it stretched over hundreds of kilometres and was not marked by a long wall. ----------------- Strictly speaking, West Berlin was not "an enclave in what was previously East Germany," since East Germany did not exist at the time the enclave was established. At the end of World War 2, Germany (which lost the war) was divided into four sectors, with responsibility for each given to one of the war's victors (USA, UK, France and the USSR). Berlin, the former German capital, was similarly divided into four sectors. In 1949, the US, French and British sectors were combined to form West Germany, with the corresponding sectors of Berlin (which were completely surrounded by the USSR-led sector of Germany) combining to form West Berlin. The Russian sector, including the Russian sector of Berlin, became East Germany. Contrary to what might have been expected, the Berlin Wall was not a defensive wall (i.e., it was not built by a defender to keep a potential invader out). Rather, it was more akin to a prison wall; it was built by East Germany to prevent East Germans from escaping to the West German enclave of West Berlin (a problem that had plagued the East German government prior to the Wall's construction), and was actually located completely within East German territory (although in most cases mere feet from the actual border).
The longest distance across North America is about 16,500 kilometres.
