The Berlin Wall was built in 1961 to keep East Germans from crossing into West Berlin. When the wall was built, it was anticipated that it would only be temporary, but when a journalist from the East German side asked a high-ranking official about when people would be able to travel across the border, everything changed. Thousands of East Germans gathered at the border crossing and broke through the wall. The guards at the border didn't have a chance to shoot, and the East Germans began to tear down the wall. The reunification of Germany followed soon after.
