After World War II, the four Allied Powers took up Occupation Zones in Germany. The US, UK, and French Zones eventually merged to become West Germany, which was a capitalist democracy like those three occupying powers. The Soviet Zone became a communist dictatorship like the Soviet Union was. It was this Soviet influence that resulted in German Communism in East Germany.
