separated the east side from the west side of Berlin. It was built to prevent people from escaping from the eastern half of Berlin.

The Berlin Wall symbolized: * The division of Germany and Europe into East and West * The inability of East Germany (and the Eastern Bloc more generally) to retain its population except by force.
Berlin, Germany
There was no wall that divided Russia. You could be referring to another wall, like the Berlin Wall, which divided Berlin, due to Russia involvement in Berlin, though Berlin is not in Russia. It started to come down in November 1989.
If you are talking about the Berlin Blockade it came long before the Berlin wall was built. The famous Berlin Blockade began in June 1948 and didn't end until May 1949. The Berlin Blockade was the result of the Soviets blocking all roads between West Berlin and West Germany, meaning there was no supply of food to West Berlin. This led to the Berlin Airlift where the western powers dropped food parcels into West Berlin. The Berlin Wall wasn't built until 1961,due to the fact that many East Berliners were escaping to West Berlin due to the better living conditions in the west. Although this had been going on for years. In the day before the wall was erected 5000 people fled East Berlin. The first wire version of the wall was built overnight and separated east and West Berlin for 29 years until it was torn down in 1989. I hope this helps.
Not physically. After the fall of the Berlin wall the country was reunited and now maintains a single government. However, due to the rift created by the wall and the opposite countries that controlled each side, there is still a large psychological difference between eastern and western people in the country.
Germany and Berlin were symbols of the Cold War due to their division into East and West, representing the broader ideological conflict between communism and capitalism. After World War II, Germany was split into East Germany (supported by the Soviet Union) and West Germany (aligned with the West), while Berlin, located deep within East Germany, was similarly divided. The Berlin Wall, erected in 1961, became a powerful symbol of the struggle between the two superpowers, encapsulating the tensions of the Cold War era and the fight for ideological supremacy. The city's eventual reunification in 1990 marked a significant turning point in the Cold War's conclusion.
Berlin, Germany.
Should have been Berlin, Germany., but not held due to WW1
More people live in West Germany, mainly due to the influx of emmigrents before and while the Berlin Wall was being completed. Even with the sparse population, the economic boom has allowed for larger families as of recent years.
Germany was divided into two parts after World War II primarily due to ideological differences between the Soviet Union and the Western Allies. In 1949, the country was split into East Germany (German Democratic Republic), aligned with the Soviet bloc, and West Germany (Federal Republic of Germany), which was aligned with the Western powers. This division was solidified by the construction of the Berlin Wall in 1961, symbolizing the broader geopolitical tensions of the Cold War. The split represented the conflict between communism and capitalism that characterized the era.
