<em><u>At the end of the Second World War, Berlin was divided into four sectors of occupation</u></em>: <u>Soviet, French, English and American.</u>

<u>Subsequently, in 1949 the eastern area that was held by the Soviets</u> <em><u>was under the jurisdiction of</u></em> <u>the so-called German Democratic Republic (RDA)</u> <em><u>and the other three formed a single area governed by</u></em> <u>the Federal Republic of Germany (FRG). </u>

<u />

<em><u>In the following years, the western zone began to prosper while the Soviet side suffered economic problems</u></em>. <u>This, caused millions of Berliners who lived under the communist regime to migrate to West Berlin.</u>

<u>It is for this reason that on the night of August 12, 1961 the authorities of the GDR decided to build a provisional wall that divided the city in two. </u>

Why did the US intervene in the Korean War
Licemer1 [7]

The USA went to war in Korea for three reasons.  

The first reason was the ‘Domino theory’.   Salami tactics in eastern Europe was not the only place where Communists were coming to power.  In the Far East, too, they were getting powerful China turned Communist in 1949.   Truman believed that, if one country fell to Communism, then others would follow, like a line of dominoes.   He was worried that, if Korea fell, the next ‘domino’ would be Japan, which was very important for American trade.   This was probably the most important reason for America’s involvement in the war.

The second reason was just to try to undermine Communism.   President Truman believed that capitalism, freedom and the American way of life were in danger of being overrun by Communism.   The Truman Doctrine had been one of ‘containment’ – stopping the Communists gaining any more territory.   In April 1950 the American National Security Council issued a report recommending that America abandon 'containment' and start 'rolling back' Communism.   This led Truman to consider driving the Communists out of North Korea.

Finally, Truman realised the USA was in a competition for world domination with the USSR.   By supporting South Korea, America was able to fight Communism without directly attacking Russia.

Hope this helps.
