The afereffects of the Second World War, which finally ended in 1945 were many and varied. One of the biggest, was a conflict that arose between the then recognized two opposing super powers, the United States and the Soviet Union, known as the Cold War. The reason for this conflict, and which originated from the strife between the two nations over who was more powerful and had more control in the world, was the huge opposing views on how life should be handled. The U.S believed strongly in democracy while the Soviets believed in Communism. Another reason for the power struggle between the two nations was the use by the U.S of nuclear power, which made the Soviets initiate a marathon of nuclear arming, which in turn increased the problems between the two. Whatever the case, this power struggle between these two nations led to one of the biggest divisions in the world and it happened when, after the Great War, the Soviets, who had taken control of most of Germany and Berlin, decided to separate their portion of the city and country with the creation of a huge mortar and brick wall in 1961. This became known as the Great Berlin Wall. This Wall became the paragon and clearest evidence of the division and conflict that was arising once again. But after several revolutions took place in 1989, especially Hungary and Poland against Communist control, the people in Eastern Germany decided to rise as well and in June 1990 up until almost 1992 the demolition of the Wall began. This event showed the shift that President Reagan was asking for, the decision to accept democracy and adopt a more open policy for the sake of peace and the wellbeing of the people.

Germany: Along with the feeling of social and economic discontent of the German middle class, strong anti-Semitism grew, motivated by the idea that the Jewish people had crucified Jesus, and because the Jews had greater economic gains than many Germans. Likewise, the Nazi party led by Adolf Hitler managed to gain much support from the Germans by being against the Jews, beginning by denying basic civil rights to the Jews, such as banning marriages between Jews and Germans. Also, in the United States, before it entered the war, the Ku Klux Klan was in favor of Hitler and the Nazis; and marches were made against the Jews. Hitler's totalitarianism would not have been so accepted had it not included hatred towards the Jews, and millions of deaths would have been avoided.
