Detailed explanation-1: -First constructed in 1961, the wall was the Cold War’s most tangible symbol of communism and demarcation of the Iron Curtain.
Detailed explanation-2: -The wall, which stood between 1961 to 1989, came to symbolize the ‘Iron Curtain’ – the ideological split between East and West – that existed across Europe and between the two superpowers, the US and the Soviet Union, and their allies, during the Cold War.
Detailed explanation-3: -The Berlin Wall would prevent the West from having further influence on the East, stop the flow of migrants out of the communist sector, and ultimately become the most iconic image of the Cold War in Europe. The United States quickly condemned the wall, which divided families and limited freedom of movement.
