  • Episode 22: The Creation of East and West Germany
    Dec 24 2023

    In the aftermath of World War II, the Yalta and Potsdam conferences temporarily divided Germany into zones of occupation. The hopes for an East-West agreement over Germany collapsed during the Berlin Crisis, solidifying the division.

This division endured for forty years until the eventual reunification of Germany.
