## Brief History

In 1939 the United States and England declared war on Germany which became the start of World War II. As the war progressed Germany and its allies quickly began to gain much control over Europe. Under the leadership of Germany's Chancellor Adolf Hitler. Hilter formed the Nazi party during World War II. The Nazi's were responsible for the murders of nearly six million European Jews in which later became known as The Holocaust. The Holocaust should also include the Nazis' systematic murder of millions of people in other groups, including Romani, people with disabilities, Soviet prisoners of war, Polish and Soviet civilians, homosexuals, Jehovah's Witnesses and other political and religious opponents. By this definition, the total number of Holocaust victims would be between 11 million and 17 million people. German Nazis established ghettos in which Jews were confined, until they were eventually shipped to death camps to be murdered. By 1942, six large extermination camps had been established in Nazi-occupied Poland. The camps became places where Jews and others were either killed or forced to live as slave laborers, undernourished and tortured. Germany's government is making a swift turnabout in order to repair the damage from World War II, and under the communist leadership of Adolf Hitler and the Nazi Party. In which, left the country divided into two parts of East Germany and West Germany. East Germany was under the communist control of the Soviet Union and divided into five states. West Germany was the Federal Republic of Germany divided into eleven states. Within, three allied occupied zones were held within these elven states which were of he United States, the United Kingdom, and France. The Berlin Wall was the physical division between East Germany and West Germany. The Berlin wall was the symbolic boundary between democracy and communism in the Cold War. The second purpose of the Berlin Wall was to keep East Germans from fleeing into West Germany to escape the communist society. The living environments became distinctly different between the east and the west. West Germany was able to repair their economy and their part of the country with help of their allied occupying powers. West Germany became known as the "economic miracle" to recovery from such a huge downfall. However, East Germany was not as fortunate. The Soviets took factory equipment and other valuable equipment and shipped it back to the Soviet Union leaving the economy of the East severely low. The individuals had very restricted freedom under the Soviets control. By the 1950's many of the East German's had enough of living under communist control and fled to West Germany. Many were able to make it to the west and others were caught. Between 1956 and 1969 the Hallestein Doctrine was in effect. This doctrine stated that West Germany would not establish or maintain any diplomatic relations with any state that recognized East Germany. The doctrine came to a end in the early 1970's after a long battle between the east and west with the adoption of Ostoplitik by Chancellor Willy Brandt . This produced a mutual agreement between the east and the west. The Berlin Wall fell on November 9, 1989 as well as the communist control of the east. In 1990, the two governments of the east and the west drafted a 1,000 page treaty establishing unification between the two.

After the Holocaust in 1949 Germany was divided into two separate states: East Germany and West Germany. East Germany was under communist control of the Soviet Union. The communists were overthrown in 1989. West Germany was a federal republic. The parliaments of both German states ratified a treaty, and the territory of East Germany joined the Federal Republic of West Germany on October 3, 1990.
