After the end of the Cold War people were afraid of having Nuclear wars. With the new reforms made people from the Soviet Union and the Eastern Europe had the chance to make decisions on economic and political systems that governed their lives. With all the changes there was a major one, the fall of the Berlin wall.
The Berlin wall was made to keep the Eastern and Western Germany from crossing the border. Anyone that would pass the wall would get shot. In November 1989 demolition work began on the Berlin wall. The people first tried to make a road for private trips. Then the decided to make several borders that would travel people across the wall. Later the cut a holes for pedestrians to go across the wall. The wall was taken out completely one November 9, 1989.
As for the Soviet Union they collapse last. Some of the groups in the Soviet Union wanted to become free like the other countries that were in Eastern Europe. They began to protest. Gorbachev made his army go into the capital of Lithuania. There the army killed 14 people and injured 150.People began to support a man name Boris Yeltsin rather then the former president of the communist party, Gorbachev. Gorbachev was forced to resign. Which ended communism in the Soviet Union. More and more countries were trying to get their freedom from communism.
