Answer: They experienced political oppression by the East German government.

The standard of living in West Germany was higher than in East Germany.

Explanation: After the division of Germany into East and West, communism was imposed in East Germany, the citizens were not asked, of course, whether they agreed with it or not. After the fierce opposition of the East and the West, due to ideological differences and the creation of the Iron Curtain, the Soviet Union blocked any influence of the West in the Eastern countries. Anyone who opposes a different opinion from the communist, in East Germany, would be prosecuted. Also, apart from political dictatorship, people's life was not like in Western Germany, which is about wealth and living conditions.
