HIST 225 - Germany, 1945-Present

Institution:

Millersville University of Pennsylvania

Subject:

History

Description:

This course examines the transformation of Germany from 1945, when, at the end of World War II, there were four occupational zones and no German state, through the era of two German states, East and West, from 1949 to 1990, to the present post-reunification Germany. The events of the Third Reich, World War II, and the Holocaust will form a backdrop to much of this history, and we will quickly review them. Then, the course focuses on the activities of the four occupying powers (the United States, the Soviet Union, Great Britain, and France) in the post-war years, the emerging Cold War, the formation of East and West Germany, developments from the 1950s to the 1980s, the collapse of East Germany and reunification, and post-reunification developments.
