nov 9, 1989 - Fall of the Berlin Wall
Description:
On November 9, 1989, the spokesman for East Berlin's communist party made a mistake by saying emigration was possible. This was a huge mistake by the spokesman because the lift of the travel ban was not told to the guards. People started to literally hammer at and destroy the wall.Added to timeline:
