Just for some background info, Berlin was the capital of the German Reich and after 1945 the allies and Soviets split Berlin into two. After that happened people tried to escape the Soviet occupied zone of Berlin and because of this the Soviets put up a wall and blocked people from leaving. This symbolized the divide of Berlin and increased tensions between the allies(at this point called NATO) and the Soviets. The Germans did not want to suffer another war and the tensions continued to go up. To answer your question this symbolized tensions growing between the Warsaw pact and NATO because the world was literally divided right at Berlin.

Why would other countries want to claim parts of north America
ale4655 [162]
Well it depends what they are in need of. They most commonly would want more land for their country to build and farm on. They may want land with fertile soil for farming. They may want the land because of it's geography, for example, for simple trade routes leading to and from the areas around north America (Canada, Mexico) etc.

East Germany

The official name of East Germany was the German Democratic Republic.  It was a communist state aligned in the orbit of the Soviet Union.  

The Allies of World War II divided Germany into four zones of control after the war -- each zone occupied by one of the Allied nations -- Britain, France, the USA, and the USSR.  The same thing was done for the city of Berlin, which was in the Soviet-controlled zone (East Germany).  East Berlin was governed under Soviet control, and West Berlin was governed by the western Allies -- Britain, France and the USA.  The British, French and American sectors were combined into West Germany (and West Berlin), and the eastern area became "East Germany," a satellite of the Soviet Union.
