Not all of it was. Belin and Germany was divided into 2 sections. The USSR controlled the eastern half and half of Berlin. The Allies controlled the western half as well as half of Berlin. Belin was divided by a wall that finally was taken down after the USSR dissolved.

People from East Germany moved to West Germany for better opportunities. To counter this the Soviet Union built a 103-mile long wall called the Berlin Wall. The tension caused from this "Iron Curtain" as Winston Churchill referred it reflected the tension of the United States and Soviet Union.

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.

Russia suffered greatly at the hands of the Germans. There was a great amount of hatred and contempt for Germany, and at the end of WW2, after Germany had been defeated, the Allies decided to split Germany to keep them from building enough strength to do it again.

The destruction of the Berlin wall began, not as the result of anyone's order, but rather it was the result of the final breakdown of authority of the East German Government. The demolition of the wall could be said to have developed out of an international press conference which began in East Berlin on 9 November 1989. There had been massive demonstrations against political repression for months. As the peace conference ended, greater freedom of travel was announced for people of the German Democratic Republic. At midnight, the East German government allowed gates along the Wall to be opened after hundreds of people converged on crossing points. In the following weeks, many people then took to the wall with hammers and chisels, dismantling it piece by piece.

The official demolition of the Berlin wall began on 13 June 1990, and was undertaken by former East German border guards overseeing contractors, under a democratically elected government.

The Berlin Conference of 1884-1885 was a meeting of European powers aimed at regulating European colonization and trade in Africa. Convened by German Chancellor Otto von Bismarck, the conference established rules for the partitioning of Africa, leading to the "Scramble for Africa." It resulted in the formalization of territorial claims by various European nations, promoting competition and often disregarding the rights and cultures of African peoples. Ultimately, this conference set the stage for extensive colonial rule across the continent.

The conference intended to ´stabilize´ the Balkan territories. It drew new borders for some Balkan countries and gave them indepence, and put other territories under the rule of Turkey, Russia and Austria respectively.

In the end, nobody in these territories was happy with the arrangements made. The resulting tensions are often seen as one of the causes of the First World War.
