Today we discussed the division of Germany into four areas controlled by France, Great Britain, the US and USSR. The area controlled by the US, France and Great Britain became West Germany and the USSR controlled area which includes Berlin became East Germany. Berlin was also split into East and West even though it is located in the middle of the communist controlled East Germany.
We also read about how the United Nations was created and the importance of the General Assembly and the Security Council.
