Technically speaking, Germany was divided into four sectors, American, British, France, and Soviet “occupation zones”. This was the same with it’s capital city, Berlin. It was a simple “spoils of war” concept, giving each ally their “fair share” of Germany to control.

However, after political tensions arose between the Western nations and the Soviet Union, America, Britain and France all combined their zones into one, starting the reconstruction of Western Germany/Berlin. This is how West and East Berlin came to be.

The Allies focused on rebuilding Germany in accordance with the Marshall Plan (rebuild Europe, improve trade and prevent the spread of communism), as the Soviets refused any effort to allow Berlin to be self-sufficient again. The citizens of East Berlin ultimately paid the price, and were left starving and with little resources of their own as communism spread throughout the region. This caused people to move from the Eastern section to the West, trying to escape the poor conditions offered by the Soviets. As a result, the Soviets blocked off the Eastern zone from the West, locking the East Germans inside (Berlin Blockade).

In an effort to assist the civilians, the Allies’ air forces set up an airlift to fly supplies from the West and drop them into the hands of East Germans. It was a complete success, and the Soviets had to lift the blockade, and eventually, built the Berlin Wall to seal off East Germany once and for all.

Based on Morrison's version of the Hindenburg disaster, it can be said that his version of the event matches what is in the video for the most part. The only difference is the number of people on board.

<h3>Who was Herbert Morrison?</h3><h3 />

He was a reporter that covered the arrival of the Hindenburg to New Jersey and so was there when it caught flames and crashed to the ground, killing 35 people.

Morrison's version of the event were accurate because he saw it happen before his eyes. From the rain to the Hindenburg catching flames and then crashing after falling on its mooring mast.

The only difference is that Morrison thought the number of people on board were 106 when in fact they were 97 people.

How do the policies of the War on Terror affect democracy and civil rights in the United States?
vfiekz [6]
  <span> Not much at all.

For example - despite all the claims that the Patriot Act has infringed on your rights - haven't you noticed that nobody can quote the section of the Act that says this?

People have a bad habit of believing things without bothering to check facts.
. </span> Source(s): I am probably the only person on YA who has read the Patriot Act.
