After the German surrender on May 8, 1945, Germany was partitioned into four zones of occupationadministered by the victorious allies: France; the U.K.; The U.S.; and the Soviet Union.

The occupation officially ended in 1949 with the formation of the Federal Republic of Germany ("West Germany") from the three western occupation zones, and the creation of the German Democratic Republic ("East Germany") from the Soviet occupation zone. This divided Germany was to last for more than 40 years.

Berlin, deep inside East Germany, was further divided into western and eastern zones. After reunification in 1990 of all of Germany into the Federal Republic of Germany, Berlin again became the capital.
