Since the occupation of Western Allies, Berlin was divided in half, leaving the eastern and western parts of the city culturally divided. During late 1950s and early 1960s when many Eastern German’s began to migrate to the western part of the city, the socialist government decided to build a fence across the city boarder, limiting access to the Western half. Over time, this fence soon became a brick wall, completely cutting off access to the west, leaving family and friends separated for nearly 30 years. After the wall came down in 1989, Europe was faced with new problems such as how to function as with new freed nations with the end of the Soviet Union and how to unify the countries.
