The Berlin Wall.

The Berlin Wall fell 25 years ago. It marked the fall of communism and the introduction of German reunification in 1990.

The collapse of the Berlin Wall celebrations held every year in Berlin with a variety of concerts, symposiums and the release of thousands of balloons at night.

Some things to know about the Berlin Wall are:

Protection against Fascism

On August 13, 1961, at 01:00 AM local time, East Germany closed the border between the eastern sector of Berlin and the Soviet-controlled western sector controlled by the Allies.

In a few weeks, the workers set up barricades along the 155 kilometers that encircle West Berlin. The Berlin Wall, which has a height of 3.6 meters, only the outer portion of the extra protection that include barbed wire, iron fences, watchtowers, hidden alarm and guard dog track.

Communist leader Walter Ulbricht called the Berlin Wall as an "anti-fascist protective wall," though in fact, the main purpose of the establishment of the wall is to prevent the wave of citizens to the West.

Runaway season.

Despite the remarkable preservation of the Berlin Wall strict, thousands of people trying to escape by digging tunnels, swam around, climbing or even flying through it.

Some people take advantage of the underground network Berlin, while others use false passports to exit.

There are some who dig tunnels to help other people behind the wall. There is one case in which a family escaped cable car vehicles.

Wall of Death.

According to the Historical Research Center Potsdam, at least 136 people, including children, lost their lives along the walls of the Cold War.

Some of them were shot East German border guards, others drowned in the River Spree.

The last victim killed was Chris Gueffroy. He was shot dead nine months before the fall of the Berlin Wall.

Reagan's speech.

During 28 years of existence, the Berlin Wall became a symbol of communist oppression. Western officials, including US President John F. Kennedy, often stopping at the Berlin Wall while visiting Germany.

In 1987, President Ronald Reagan gave a speech urged Mikhail Gorbachev to "tear down the wall immediately!"

Gorbachev did not respond to a serious speech Reagan, and call it a "performance" purely a Hollywood actor. But the speech was able to lift the morale of the people in the western city of Berlin.

The collapse of the Berlin Wall.

At night, November 9, 1989, West German television broadcast the news that the communist authorities lifted a ban on travel and give more flexibility to the citizens of East Germany.

The television news bulletin based confuse a senior official of East Germany, which failed to deliver various key points in the new regulation. Before the communist authorities had time to straighten out the news, thousands of East Berlin already past the border guards to celebrate freedom with their relatives in West Berlin.

Communist dictatorship disappear within a few months thereafter. On October 3, 1990, East and West Germany became one country again.

Did You Know History Berlin Wall fell.

The most famous wall in the world is a concrete barrier wall built by the German Democratic Republic (East Germany) that separates West Berlin and East Berlin and other East German regions so as to make an enclave of West Berlin. The Berlin Wall finally collapsed celebrated annually on 9 November in accordance with the current destruction of November 9, 1989.

The history of the Berlin Wall.

Berlin wall is also considered as the main icon of the Cold War. In addition to the "iron curtain" that form the border between East and West Germany. Reason east German government to build the Berlin Wall is to prevent the spread of Nazism understood in eastern Germany, which is considered to still exist. The Berlin Wall can be traced to its origin since Joseph Stalin blockaded West Berlin. And West responded with a massive airlift.

Stalin had long sought to expel all the elements of a block west of Berlin, but failed miserably with The Great Airlift Berlin to the west. Because Berlin west remain in the hands of the Western block, many residents fled to Berlin east Berlin west to escape Communist rule. Then East German leader at the time, Walther Ulbricht ordered the blockade to Berlin west to prevent the exodus of east Berlin. Carrying 3.5 million residents fled to Berlin Germany east west until 1961, when the Berlin Wall was built.

Initially the Berlin Wall is only a barbed wire fence, small wall which is made from the composition of rocks brick and wooden barriers. East German government also closed the border with western Germany and build a border wall dr north-south tip of Germany. The massive exodus that makes Walther Ulbricht to build the Berlin Wall and the wall of the state border.

In 1961 there was a crisis in Berlin. Soviet tanks and tanks at Checkpoint Charlie Americans faced, with cannon in aiming position. Commented one of the citizens of Berlin at that "if there are fraudulent turn on firecrackers wrote, we are toast" was so tense situation at the time. Then, the American and Soviet negotiate to resolve the crisis. In fact this is a game Ulbricht to reap the benefits. East German dictator then strengthen Berlin wall, set a trap for vehicles, nail boards to prevent the escape jump.

Many attempts were made citizens desperate to cross to the east Berlin west. Even the stakes are life threatening. There are building an underground tunnel, made hot air balloon, even using light aircraft. There's also early days when the Berlin Wall was still in the form of barbed wire, a lot of people desperate to jump over the wire fence. Berlin wall has two layers of walls. Between the two walls there is a "no man's land" area where the escapees were shot dead on the spot. "No man's land" include minefield, automatic machine gun nests, guard dog alert, alarm fitted to wire reply. Recorded more than 200 people killed in no man's land Berlin wall, mostly because they were shot dead east German border guards.

Broadly speaking, the Berlin Wall in the form of barbed wire, razor wire which modernized, concrete walls, no man's land, and the second wall. Which became iconic is the fourth tier wall, which was built in 1975 by Erich Honecker, Ulbricht's successor eastern German dictator. Erich Honecker optimistic, the Berlin Wall would stand up to 100 years. Honecker even create a program called "Wall in 2000". "Wall 2000" is a program of digitalization system of national borders and border the Berlin Wall which aims to reduce the manpower and costs. "Wall 2000", will be equipped with various sensors and detectors, intelligent minefield, to spray a liquid chemical to stop the run. Guaranteed there will be no escapees who will try to penetrate the Berlin Wall and the border fence east-west German state.

The core of the system "wall in 2000" was a variety of sensors such as heat sensors, motion sensors detect even the voice sensor breakout For that hide. And No Man's land is maintained, deliberately coated sand to detect footprints of the fugitives with ease. Actually, the guards were instructed to pretend guns know if he saw footprints in the no man's land. The new shoot later. "Wall 2000" null and built following the collapse of the Soviet Union, the dissolution of the German eastern and tore down the Berlin Wall. Berlin wall demolished in 1989, when a peaceful revolution throughout Germany began to burst.

Initially, neighboring countries open borders, so that hundreds of thousands of residents fled to the eastern German states such as Hungary and Austria. Following the German government's decision eastern eastern German states every citizen can freely travel anywhere. Stupid at a press conference, the government said the government's decision comes into force immediately. This is a fatal error. As a result, hundreds of thousands of people stormed the east Berlin Checkpoint Charlie and broke into the western Berlin. Erich Honecker desperate lowered its police force to dispel the citizens who tried to escape.

The collapse of the Berlin Wall history.

Prior to the construction of this wall, there are about 3.5 million East German citizens who migrate and defected to the west, one with a pass East German border and West Germany, and then they can go to other Western European countries. Between 1961 and 1969, these walls also prevent it. In the span of approximately 30 years, there are about 5,000 people who tried to escape, with estimates there are 100 to 200 people who died were shot.

In 1989, there were radical political changes in the Eastern Bloc, which is related to the liberalization of the system of authority in the Eastern Bloc and also began to decrease the influence of the Soviet Union in countries such as Poland and Hungary. After several weeks of civil unrest, the East German government announced November 9, 1989 that the people of East Germany should go to West Germany and West Berlin. Then, crowds of East Germans crossed and climbed over the wall even then, followed by West Germans on the other hand to celebrate the atmosphere of freedom. Several weeks later, the euphoria of public and souvenir hunters finally cracked parts of the wall. Later, most of the wall was destroyed by the government using heavy equipment. The Fall of the Berlin Wall paved the way formation of German reunification, October 3, 1990.

After allowing loopholes for residents to cross the border in the summer, Hungary finally effectively removes the physical barrier country with Austria on 19 August 1989. In September, more than 13,000 East Germans fled to Austria via Hungary. This causes some series of events next. The Hungarian prevent a growing number of East Germans who crossed the border, and return them to Budapest.

East German people's meets West German embassy and refused to return to East Germany. East German government responded by closing all the way to Hungary, but still allow those who want to return to East Germany. On this occasion, the East German authorities to allow them to go, as long as they use the train must pass through East Germany. Then came the massive demonstrations in East Germany alone. East German leader, Erich Honecker, resigned on October 18, 1989 and was replaced by Egon Krenz a few days later. Honecker had predicted that the walls were still will last up to 50 or 100 years from now, if the condition of the country has not changed.

Protest demonstrations broke out across East Germany in September 1989. At first, the protesters wanted to go westward, chanting "Wir wollen raus!" ("We want to go!"). But then the protesters began shouting "Wir bleiben hier" ("We will stay here!"). So, this is the beginning of what is called the East Germans as the "Peaceful Revolution" in late 1989. Protesters greater in early November. The protesters peaked on November 4, when nearly half a million people gathered at Alexanderplatz demonstration.

Meanwhile, the refugees who left East Germany to West Germany is increasing, and they found a new way to get out of East Germany, that is the way through Hungary via Czechoslovakia (or via the West German Embassy in Prague) as permitted by the new Krenz government, and with approval by the communist government of Czechoslovakia. So that the state is not more complicated, eventually politburo led by Krenz allow refugees to exit directly through the border between East Germany and West Germany, including West Berlin on November 9, 1989.

Date when the wall were chipped away is 9 November 1989, but at that moment the wall is not directly destroyed on the spot. In the afternoon and a few weeks later, people came carrying a sledgehammer and the like to destroy some walls and also create some holes unofficial border. These people are referred to as "Mauerspechte" (wall woodpeckers).

Back East German regime announced that it will open 10 new border crossings, including at several historic sites such as Potsdamer Platz, Glienicker Brücke, and Bernauer Straße. The mass of the two sides wait for hours, cheering when the bulldozers destroy this wall. New border crossings continued to be opened throughout 1990, including at the Brandenburg Gate dated December 22, 1989.

Residents of West Germany and West Berlin East Germany allowed entry without a visa from 23 December 1989. Until that date, they are only allowed in with various requirements and are required to make an application for a visa. In addition, they are required to pay a minimum of 25 DM per day. So, in fact on November 9 and December 23, the East German population is more free than West Germany.

Coverage on television about the many people who destroyed part of the wall on 9 November make many people abroad think that this wall will be destroyed as soon as possible. Actually, this wall is maintained until a few days later, although the intensity of the smaller guard. In the first month, the East German military even tried to repair the wall that was destroyed by the "wall woodpeckers". Then, over time, this action was stopped, and the guards increasingly tolerant to the action of the destruction of the wall and it goes through the wall of the hole population. Dated January 13, 1990, this wall was destroyed by a military official of East Germany, began in Bernauer Straße. The back wall destruction continued after German reunification until finally completed in November 1991.

Only a few parts of the walls and towers were maintained, as a memorial. The fall of the Berlin Wall was the beginning of German reunification, which was signed on October 3, 1990. The collapse of the Berlin Wall this illustrates that the power of the union of man in this world is unmatched strength as pharmaceutics resistance encountered. Thank you for reading this article.

Berlin.

The Berlin Wall (German: Berliner Mauer) was a concrete barrier wall built by the German Democratic Republic (East Germany) that separates West Berlin and East Berlin and other East German regions so as to make an enclave of West Berlin. This wall was built on August 13, 1961. The barrier wall is also accompanied by the establishment of a guard tower built along this wall, as well as the establishment of a restricted area, which is filled with anti-vehicle mines. Eastern Bloc claimed that the wall was built to protect the citizens from fascist elements that can trigger large movements, so that they can establish communist rule in East Germany. However, in practice, it turns out this wall used to prevent the flight of the population the greater the East Berlin to West Berlin region, which is located in the region of West Germany.

By East German authorities, the Berlin Wall is said to be "Anti-Fascist Protection Fortress" (German: Antifaschistischer Schutzwall), which states that the West German state has not fully is de-nazifikasi. City West German government sometimes says the Berlin Wall as the "Wall of Shame" initiated by Mayor-called Willy Brandt-to condemn this wall because it restricts freedom of movement. Along with the Inter-German Boundary Wall separating East and West Germany, both the parapet has become a symbol of the "Iron Curtain" that separated Western Europe with Eastern Bloc during the Cold War.
Prior to the construction of this wall, there are about 3.5 million East German citizens who migrate and defected to the west, one with a pass East German border and West Germany, and then they can go to other Western European countries. Between 1961 and 1989, these walls also prevent it. In the span of approximately 30 years, there are about 5,000 people who tried to escape, with estimates there are 100 to 200 people who died were shot.

In 1989, there were radical political changes in the Eastern Bloc, which is related to the liberalization of the system of authority in the Eastern Bloc and also began to decrease the influence of the Soviet Union in countries such as Poland and Hungary.

Then, crowds of East Germans crossed and climbed over the wall even then, followed by West Germans on the other hand to celebrate the atmosphere of freedom. Several weeks later, the euphoria of public and souvenir hunters finally cracked parts of the wall. Later, most of the wall was destroyed by the government using heavy equipment. The Fall of the Berlin Wall paved the way formation of German reunification, October 3, 1990.

Background.

German post-World War II.

After the end of World War II in Europe, were left out of the western part of Oder-Neisse line was divided into four occupied (due to the Potsdam Agreement), each area was controlled by the United States, United Kingdom, France, and the Soviet Union. The capital city of Berlin, as the control center, also divided into 4 regions even though the city itself is located deep inside the Soviet power.
For approximately two years, no political changes in the Soviet and other allied members. This happens because the Soviets refused to agree to the plan reconstruction of post-war Germany. Britain, France, USA, and the Benelux countries then meet to merge regions into a single non-Soviet region to be reconstructed and approved the expansion of the Marshall Plan.

Eastern Bloc and the Berlin Blockade.

After the end of World War II, Soviet leader Joseph Stalin headed a combination of several countries that are members of the Eastern Bloc, among others, Poland, Hungary, and Czechoslovakia, including the German area of ​​occupation. In early 1945, Stalin revealed the German communist leader to rid England of his work is the zone, plus the United States will withdraw its troops within one or two years, so then later there is no obstacle to the establishment of a united German communist state.

The main task for running communist party in the Soviet region is running the Soviet command to the administrative authorities, which later results will be seen from the policies issued by the region. Thus, industries and many properties in East Germany were soon nationalized. Contrasting political process going on in the region of West Germany ruled by Britain, France, and the United States, where the president and prime minister elected by parliament.  If the statement or the end of the reported decision not fit properly, then the people who run this mission could be imprisoned, tortured, and even killed.

In 1948, in the absence of agreement on the reconstruction of the new currency and Germany, Stalin argued Blockade of Berlin to prevent the entry of food, materials, and various other necessities to West Berlin. United States, Britain, France, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and other countries soon send food aid and other supplies to Berlin, called "Freight Berlin". Soviet and then spread its contents public campaign criticizing western policy. Communists also tried to undermine the elections in 1948, but eventually they suffered defeat, coupled with the 300,000 residents of West Berlin who protest that international assistance to them not inhibited. Month of May 1949, Stalin finally opened the blockade and allow the transport of goods and other necessities to West Berlin.
German Democratic Republic (East Germany) declared on October 7, 1949.

With the ladder secret pact, Soviet Foreign Minister approve the administrative authorities of East Germany, but not autonomy. The Soviet Union itself remains fully penetrate and control the military, secret police, administrative and East Germany.
East Germany different from West Germany (Federal Republic of Germany), which evolved into a capitalist country with Western culture with social market economic system ("soziale Marktwirtschaft" in German) with a democratic parliamentary government. Remarkable economic growth in the 1950s gave rise to the "economic miracle" ("Wirtschaftswunder"). With the West German economy continues to grow and the standard of living is getting better, many East German citizens who want to move to West Germany.

Wall construction.

This wall was established on August 13, 1961 by the communist East German government under the leadership of Walter Ulbricht as Berlin West is a 'hole' in their country. Between 1949 and 1961 more than 2 million East Germans escape through Berlin. This makes the East German economy into oversize, because most people who are young who escaped. Then secretly and suddenly the wall was built.

The Berlin Wall and the Cold War.

The Berlin Wall is locked West Berlin and the city cut exactly in the middle, has become a symbol of the Cold War's most famous. Many magnifying the west, especially the US president's visit to condemn the wall. President JF Kennedy in 1963 to come and speak at the side of this wall with the famous sentence: "Ich bin ein Berliner." Then 20 years later, in 1983 president Ronald Reagan gave a speech here and condemned what he called the Soviet Union an Evil Empire, or an evil empire. But in 1989, on the anniversary of the German Democratic Republic, or East Germany, Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev also had visited the Berlin Wall and said the East German leader Erich Honecker that "whoever comes late, will be punished by life".

An escape through the Berlin Wall.

During the Berlin Wall stood, there are about 5,000 people who managed to escape. The number of people who died as a result of trying to escape, is still being debated. According to Alexandra Hildebrandt, Director of the Checkpoint Charlie Museum, the estimated number of people killed were more than 200 people. A historic group at the Center for Contemporary Historical Research (ZZF) in Potsdam confirmed that there are 136 the number of people killed. Earlier, the official record is 98 people killed.

The collapse of the Berlin Wall.

After allowing loopholes for residents to cross the border in the summer, Hungary finally effectively removes the physical barrier country with Austria on 19 August 1989. In September, more than 13,000 East Germans fled to Austria via Hungary. This causes some series of events next.

East German government responded by closing all the way to Hungary, but still allow those who want to return to East Germany. On this occasion, the East German authorities to allow them to go, just as long as they use later trains pass through East Germany.

Then came the massive demonstrations in East Germany alone. (See the Monday Demonstrations in East Germany.) East German leader, Erich Honecker, resigned on October 18, 1989 and was replaced by Egon Krenz a few days later. Honecker had predicted that the walls were still will last up to 50 or 100 years from now, if the condition of the country has not changed.

Eyewitnesses said they heard at least 10 shots and saw a man being transported by the vehicle.

Chris Gueffroy killed on the spot in a matter of minutes, while his friend critically injured and taken to jail. The ranks of leadership in East Germany tried to cover up the death of Gueffroy.

Soekarno was Teacher Fidel Castro.

Soekarno in 1960 came to Cuba. He was taken to the palace and a special place, Fidel asked taught the concepts of revolution. "Mr. Soekarno, the country has its own spirit in bringing about change, we stand here alone surrounded by countries plantation remains Spain and Portugal, we also adjacent to the king of the world capitalist United States, every time we were on guard lest the American missile befall our city, and we were forced to ally with the Soviet Union so that we were safe. Indeed, Mao asked us to jointly build a political alliance, but because the Soviet Union refused when Mao intervened then we were forced to let go of Mao, though it hurt him. But we felt we had to be independent, not dependent on other countries such as the state Tuan, Indonesia ... "

"Well, Your Honor Castro ..... A country must first be independent. It was the biggest requirement of a revolution. He should not be dependent on anyone, force himself to be the size. A country should have independence, because independence he will get three things: honor, humanity and intelligence. Now, to achieve this we have to be strong to face the storm of temptation. I myself will fight when my country surrounded by colonies that would later evolve as a threat "

Fidel then asked again. "So what should be done to Cuba". Soekarno replied "What should be done is to first Majesty must analyze the glorious capital strength, what can be used as a tool for self, then use it 100% of capital for the general welfare. For me it is a source of happiness general welfare of the people, the state should not be a place for marauding on behalf of the capital, on behalf of the commodity "

Sukarno's teachings then actually held Cuba. After the visit Sukarno, Castro ordered the General Welfare Act. Hospitals, Schools, Public Facility made as possible for the welfare of the people. Until now, the Cuban public health facilities is the best of the world, people get their health rights. School was founded by free and funded by the state. Public means is very neat.

While Soekarno should die in narrow cages which are not suitable for people of him. Soekarno died, all the idea of ​​his death. Then in Indonesia occurred outstanding burglary, robbed Freeport, Newmont robbed, gas fields are no longer for public welfare, oil fields, oil palm plantations. Everything in the robber without the slightest flow into public welfare facilities. People's allowed to live minimally. A Supriyono should bring her baby corpse because it was unable to pay the ambulance, poor people die seizure of zakat, the exodus of hundreds of thousands of our women abroad, departed without honor and dignity as human beings Indonesia intelligent and educated, but departed as a man who resigned.

It Makes Mandela Amazed at Fidel Castro.

Fidel Castro joked with Nelson Mandela in the meeting of the World Trade Organization in Geneva, Switzerland, May 19, 1998. The United States sees as a hero Nelson Mandela and Fidel Castro as criminals. But Mandela saw it from a different side: consider Castro as a friend and inspiration of freedom.

According to the Huffington Post, Mandela admired former Cuban dictator because he opposed apartheid and represent the aspirations of the nationalists from third world countries. Attitude nationalistic and anti-imperialist leader of South Africa has much in common with the Cuban leader.

Instead, the struggle of Mandela also affect the movement in South America. The victory of the Cuban Revolution in 1959 touted inspired by Mandela's speeches.

" Every source of interest to me," Mandela wrote in his autobiography in 2008.
" I read the report Blas Roca, Secretary General of the Community Party of Cuba, when they are considered as illegal organizations during the Batista regime. I read works by and about Che Guevara, Mao Tse-tung, Fidel Castro. "

Mandela admiration at Castro is not unfounded. Cuba under Castro against apartheid and supporting the African National Congress - Mandela and the political organization of the ruling party today. Cuban military intervention to Angola in the 1970s and 1980s was instrumental weaken the government of South Africa, resulted in the legalization of the ANC in 1990.

The US government, on the other hand, reportedly played a role in the arrest of Mandela in 1962 and later branded him a terrorist-called that they canceled in 2008. In 1986, President Ronald Reagan vetoed the Anti-Apartheid Act.

Given this history, it should not be surprising that Mandela remains critical of the US. When President George W. Bush announced plans to invade Iraq in 2003, Mandela showed his opposition. "If there are countries that do unspeakable atrocities in the world, it is the United States. They do not care," he said.

Shortly after his release as a political prisoner in 1990, Mandela visited Cuba for expressing gratitude. He called the revolution Castro as "a source of inspiration for all those who love freedom."

"We admire the sacrifice of the Cuban people in maintaining their independence and sovereignty in the face of a demon, a campaign organized by the imperialists," Mandela said during the visit, as quoted by the Los Angeles Times. "We also want to control our own destiny."

He also asked Castro to visit South Africa. Castro the invitation Mandela in 1994 for the inauguration of Mandela as the first black president of South Africa.

Castro and Mandela continued their relationship until Mandela no longer served as president in 1999. Mandela said he will not reverse his back to the people who are equally opposed to apartheid. Thank you for reading this article.
