In this episode, we’ll examine the post-World War II division of Germany into four occupation zones, managed by the USA, USSR, Britain, and France. We’ll discuss how the Allied Control Council worked to make joint decisions but required unanimous agreement, and the division of Berlin into similar sectors. While the USA and Britain merged their zones with a focus on economic recovery and democratic processes, the Soviet Union sought to instill communist influence in their area. France, concerned with securing its interests, especially in the Ruhr Valley, advocated for a divided Germany. Join us as we explore the competing aims of the Allies and the foundation for future tensions.
