It started June 24th, 1948-1949. The soviet union had blockaded the allied controlled area of all supply of water and food, as well as anyway in or out of Berlin on ground. How the allied forces responded was by sending planes to Berlin to bring in supplies to keep everyone in the area alive. The allied forces brung in enough supply to keep more than 2 million people alive for 10 months. Proving that they could keep up the airlift going as long as they needed. The Soviets gave in and lifted the blockade on May 11th, 1949. All though the airlift kept up until the 30th of May. They successfully delivered 13,000 tons of supply including 600 cargo trains of coal everyday to keep sustain everyone.

From 1961 to 1989 the Berlin wall separated east Berlin and the German democratic public. With the wall being built basically over night many people were trapped inside or out of the wall not being able to go to work or even see family. East Berlin was off limits to travel to from the GDP but that didn't stop over 100,000 people to try and climb it but what did stop them was the guards with the command to shoot anyone who tried to breach the wall in anyway killing more than 600 people. The wall that blocked east Berlin from the public was brought down on November 9th, 1989 due to absurd amounts of people rioting to change the travel laws to be more laid back, the guards not being informed on how many protesters their would be and on new rules causing confusion between guards leading to and one of them announcing to the public that the wall is open which people began tearing down the wall.
