The correct answer is "The Berlin Wall divided East and West Germany."
The construction of the Berlin Wall in 1961 had a significant impact on the country of Germany. It was built by the East German government to prevent citizens from fleeing to the West, as a response to the high number of people leaving East Germany for better economic opportunities and political freedoms in West Germany.
The wall physically separated the two parts of Germany, effectively dividing the country into two separate entities - East Germany (also known as the German Democratic Republic) and West Germany (known as the Federal Republic of Germany). The wall was a concrete barrier, fortified with barbed wire, guard towers, and anti-vehicle trenches. It extended approximately 96 miles and surrounded West Berlin, which was located within East Germany.
The division caused by the Berlin Wall had profound consequences for Germany. Families and friends were separated, and people living in East Germany faced restrictions on their movement and freedom. The wall became a symbol of the Cold War and the ideological divide between communism in the East and democracy in the West. It remained a divisive presence until its fall in 1989, which marked a significant milestone in the reunification of Germany.
