The True Story Behind the Berlin Wall
#berlinwall

"Why was the Berlin Wall built? After World War II, Germany was divided into two: East Germany, controlled by the Soviets, and West Germany, backed by the Allies.

Berlin, the capital, was also split. The East had strict communist rule, while the West enjoyed more freedom. Many people wanted to escape from East to West.

To stop them, the East German government built a massive wall in 1961. It stretched 96 miles and was heavily guarded. Families were separated, and crossing it was deadly.

For nearly 30 years, the Berlin Wall symbolized the divide between freedom and oppression. But in 1989, people began to tear it down, marking the end of the Cold War.

The Berlin Wall may be gone, but its story still teaches us about the fight for freedom."
