What happened to Germany after the Nazi regime collapsed?
The Allies (Britain, France, America, and the USSR) divided it into four political zones across West and East Germany.
Soviet Russia = Northeast
US = Southeast
France = Northwest
Britain = Southwest
Berlin was divided the same way.
What were the names and ideologies of the Allied leaders during 1945?
Britain = Winston Churchill, capitalist democrat
US = Franklin D. Roosevelt, capitalist democrat
France = Charles de Gaulle, leader of the Free French movement
USSR = Joseph Stalin, communist dictator
Why was Germany divided in 1945?
Because the Allies wanted to ensure that it would remain powerless.
Why did tensions arise between the Allies after Germany was split?
Their ambitions and ideologies did not align. Stalin stuck out worst of all because he was a dictator.
What happened to the Germans living in the USSR’s political zone in Germany?
Soviet Russia wanted reparations, so they pillaged literally everything from the Germans. The German citizens were extremely scared of that particular army that had stormed their city of Berlin, so scared that the other Allies were a relief to them.
People were forced to convert to communism or at least live under a communist government.
