The correct answer is: B. A wall

As World War II ended, in 1945, the destiny of Germany's territories was determined in the Yalta and Postdam conferences. The conquer and defeated German nation was split into four occupation zones. The Eastern part of the nation was given to the Soviet Union, and the Western part of the nation was given to the United States, Great Britain and eventually to France. Even though Berlin, Germany's capital by that time, was located completely within the Soviet part of the country, The Yalta and Postdam agreements divided the city into homogeneous sectors.

The existence of West Berlin, which was the capitalist part of both Berlins, within the Communist East Berlin, became a major problem to the Soviets. Tensions arose in 1958 and with the massive flood of East Berlin refugees crossing the borders to West Berlin, Premier Khrushchev gave the East German government the authorization to stop the flow of emigrants by closing and locking its border. In two weeks volunteer constructions workers with the East German Army and the Police force built and completed the Berlin Wall (August 13,1961).

The Berlin Wall was a barbed wire and concrete block wall built by the Communist government on the German Democratic Republic (East Germany), between East and West Berlin. The official purpose of the Berlin Wall was to keep Western strong central government from entering East Germany and threatening the Socialist state, but it primarily assisted the objective of removing mass desertions and disloyalties from East to West.

What is George Washington's views on slavery and political career
pentagon [3]

Answer:

The relationship between George Washington and slavery was complex, contradictory and evolved over time. It operated on two levels: his personal position as a slaveowning Virginia planter and later farmer; and his public positions first as commander-in-chief of the Continental Army during the American Revolutionary War and later as President of the United States. He owned slaves almost his entire life, having inherited the first ten slaves at the age of eleven on the death of his father in 1743. In adulthood his personal slaveholding increased through inheritance, purchase and natural increase, and he gained control of dower slaves belonging to the Custis estate on his marriage in 1759 to Martha Dandridge Custis. He put his slaves to work on his Mount Vernon estate, which in time grew to some 8,000 acres (3,200 ha) encompassing five separate farms, initially planting tobacco but diversifying into grain crops in the mid 1760s. Washington's early attitudes to slavery reflected the prevailing Virginia planter views of the day; he demonstrated no moral qualms about the institution and referred to his slaves as "a Species of Property." He became skeptical about the economic efficacy of slavery before the American Revolution, and grew increasingly disillusioned with the institution after it. Washington remained dependent on slave labor, and by the time of his death in 1799 he owned 124 slaves, whom he freed in his will, and controlled another 193, most of whom remained enslaved.
