East Germany

East Germany was a nation allied with the Soviet Union, opposing the rest of the former Allies and West Germany, created by the separation of Germany following the Second World War. During the Cold War, a barrier known as the Berlin Wall separated West Berlin from East Berlin and East Germany as a whole. (AUDIO: Protect and Survive) The East German secret police was called the Stasi. (AUDIO: The Shadow Vortex)
