The territory of East Germany (the German Democratic Republic) joined the Federal Republic of Germany. The reunification took place through a process accelerated after the opening of the Berlin Wall in 1989 and as a result of negotiations conducted with the four former occupying powers (the United States, the USSR, the United Kingdom, and France). This event is regarded as one of the important stages in the end of the Cold War.
