BERLIN WALL
"Wall of Shame"
-The Berlin Wall was both the physical division between West Berlin and East Germany from 1961 to 1989 and the symbolic boundary between democracy and Communism during the Cold War. It began to be built on August 13, 1961 and it's purpose for it's construction was to prevent "well-educated" East Germans from leaving East German.
-The Berlin Wall was important because it symbolized the difference between the western democrats and the eastern communists and the way they thought Germany should be lead.
