9 Nov 1989 Jahr - Berlin Wall Falls

Beschreibung:

When Mikhail Gorbachev came into power in the Soviet Union, his modern views on economics and political ideology began to rapidly change his nation, as well as his fellow members of the Warsaw Pact. This included numerous up-rises in Warsaw Pact countries against communist leadership, which were allowed through his "glasnost"/freedom policy unlike ever before. On November 9, 1989, the Berlin Wall was torn down as part of the increasing fight for freedom within communist nations. This event was significantly more threatening to the Soviet Union than any previous eliminations of communist rule, as Germany held a close border to Germany, which was likely to join NATO.
