Explanation

After the end of the Second World War in 1945, Germany was occupied by the victorious powers. In order to organize administration and reconstruction, these powers divided the country into several occupation zones. Each zone was controlled by a different state and had its own political and military structures. This system shaped the post-war period in Germany and laid the foundation for the later division of the country.
