Explanation
After World War II, Germany was divided into four occupation zones, administered by the Allies: the USA, the UK, France, and the Soviet Union. This division was a result of Allied conferences aimed at establishing a peaceful post-war order and ensuring control over Germany. The zones laid the groundwork for the later division into the Federal Republic of Germany and the German Democratic Republic during the Cold War.
