The blockade of Berlin was the closing of the borders that shared the United Kingdom and the United States with the Soviet Union in the occupied German territory. The city of Berlin, located in the middle of the current state (Land) of Brandenburg, was in this Soviet zone (very close to the Polish administration area and to oder-neisse). However, in Berlin there were troops from the other three allied armies, who had arrived there according to the pacts celebrated at the Yalta Conference (1945).
The blockade was imposed by the Soviet Union, and affected mainly the western area of Berlin, then controlled by the forces of the United States, the United Kingdom and France. It was applied in response to the monetary reform imposed by these countries.

The biggest effect of the French and Indian War was that it taught the 13 American colonies how to fight together. Before this war there was a mutual distrust between the thirteen. The next common foe would be Great Britain in the American Revolution.
This war also left Great Britain in extreme financial trouble within their military which of course will be a huge advantage for the colonists in the Revolution.
Great Britain tried to tax the colonists to make some money to be able to afford their military but this backfired when the colonists asked for representation in parliament-were denied- and started tossing tea off ships in Boston.
Therefore, we can really thank the French and Indian War for paving the way to our freedom.
