Berlin was divided by the victorious allied governments: the Soviet Union controlled the eastern sector; the British were to control the Northern sector;
the French were given the smallest sector wedged between the British and the
Americans in the Southern sector. This arrangement was threatened when the Soviets in 1947 tried to blockade the entire city, hoping to force the western allies to depart from Berlin and hand it over to the Communists. It didn't happen because the Americans and British organized an amazing airlift that proved to be highly successful. This would endear the Germans to the west forever! Few know this but Vienna, Austria was also divided by the wartime allied governments until 1955. Unlike Berlin, the Soviets voluntarily left and pulled back to Hungary and East Germany. Berlin would remain divided until the Berlin Wall came down and reunification in Nov 1989.
After World War II, Berlin, the capital of Germany was split into four zones. These were controlled by the Russians, Americans, British and French armies for many years. The US, UK and French zones were collectively called West Berlin and the Russion zone East Berlin. In 1961 the Berlin Wall was built by the Russians to divide the city. The wall was pulled down in 1989.
