The Dividing of Germany

           At the end of World War II, Germany was divide into four sections. France controlled one part, England controlled one part, the U.S. controlled one part, and the U.S.S.R. controlled the last part. However, France, England, and the United States joined their sections together to create West Germany. The U.S.S.R. controlled East Germany. Berlin, although in the middle of Eastern Germany, was also divided into two sections, West Berlin and East Berlin. This shows how Germany was divided. The Soviets wanted to set up a Communist oppressive government, but the Allies thought that they should try to remake Germany as an independent country.
