November 9, 1989: the symbol of the Cold War and the division of the world into two hostile blocs began to collapse under the blows of the West and East Germans, who could finally meet (28 years after the split) in a single people and country.

It happened by chance and suddenly, for a spokesman's phrase. But only because in the meantime History, the one with a capital S, had set in motion the inevitable. And so on November 9, 1989, the Berlin Wall, symbol of the Cold War and the division of the world into two hostile blocs, began to collapse under the blows of the West and East Germans, who could finally come together in one people and country. A reunification that changed Germany, then Europe, then the world.
