Event E: The Berlin Crisis  Post WWII: Germany was under military rule and divided into four zones: British, American, Soviet, and French  Berlin was also divided into four sectors.  Berlin was located in the Soviet zone.  Stalin did not want it divided.  The Soviets believed the Americans wanted to create a separate West German state.

Germany Divided into 4 Zones

Berlin divided into four zones:

Berlin Blockade: June, 1948  France, U.S., Britain planned to introduce a new currency in Germany  The Soviets were not consulted and withdrew from the Allied Control Council  Soviets protested by blockading Berlin  Stalin then cut off West Berlin from food, fuel, power  U.S. started an airlift of supplies in August  May, 1949, Stalin reopened routes to Berlin

1961: The Berlin Wall  Soviet Premier Khrushchev built the wall to prevent people in East Berlin from going into West Berlin.  The wall remained a barrier between two parts of Berlin until November, 1989.

In a masterfully-planned operation, spanning just 24 hours, the streets of Berlin were torn up, barricades of paving stones were erected, tanks were gathered at crucial places and subways and local railway services were interrupted, so that within a day the West of Berlin was completely sealed off from the East. As of that same day inhabitants of East Berlin and the GDR were no longer allowed to enter the West of the city (including the 60,000 who had been commuters). In response to international criticism that such drastic measures inevitably drew, the GDR claimed that the barricade had been raised as an ‘anti-fascist protection wall’, and that they had moved to prevent a third world war.Berlin

Berlin Wall:
