    The Berlin Wall was built in 1961 to prevent East Berliners from escaping to West Berlin but began crumbling in 1989. Mass protests in East Germany grew as citizens revolted against the poor living conditions under communist rule. On November 9, 1989 the Berlin Wall was opened, families were reunited, and East Germany's communist government dissolved, marking the peaceful end of the Cold War divide in Berlin.
