West Berlin, like West Germany, was divided into three zones, one each for the British, French and Americans. East Berlin and East Germany were controlled by the Soviets. Problems arose because Berlin was ninety miles deep into the Soviet Sector, which became East Germany.

After World War 2 the city of Berlin, while entirely within Soviet East Germany, was partitioned among the four victorious European powers. East Berlin was under Russian control, and control over West Berlin was split three ways between the US, UK, and France.

Throughout its existence from 1949 to 1990 East Germany (correct name: 'Deutsche Demokratische Republik' or DDR) was controlled by the 'Sozialistische Einheitspartei Deutschlands' (SED, Socialist Unity Party of Germany).

The DDR was a member of the Warsaw Pact, as were all the other countries of Eastern Europe. In the early years the SED was under the control of the USSR, in later years the SED (and hence the country itself) became more independent. In the last years the USSR reformed, but the SED refused to do so, which in part led to its downfall.
