The Wall

The berlin wall was a result of the end of ww2 when Russia wanted control over europe and had some disagreements with the us so they divide berlin into east and west, east being controlled by russia and communist and west being free controlled by U.S. People in the east often wanted to move to the west but the wall was guarded and had barbed wire, it was a symbol of the cold war and after russia when bankrupt after a long arms race the wall was torn down signifying the end of the cold war.
