The Allied powers who defeated Nazi Germany in World War II divided the country west of the Oder-Neisse line into four occupation zones for administrative purposes during the period 1945–1949. In the closing weeks of fighting in Europe, American forces had pushed beyond the previously agreed boundaries for the future zones of occupation, in some places by as much as 200 miles. The line of contact between Soviet and American forces at the end of hostilities was temporary. After two months in which they had held areas that had been assigned to the Soviet zone, American forces withdrew in July 1945. Some have concluded that this was a crucial move that persuaded the Soviet Union to allow American, British, and French forces into their predesignated zones in Berlin, which occurred at roughly the same time (July 1945), although the need for intelligence gathering may also have been a factor.

  • The Allied powers who defeated Nazi Germany in World War II divided the country west of the Oder-Neisse line into four occupation zones for administrative purposes during the period 1945–1949. In the closing weeks of fighting in Europe, American forces had pushed beyond the previously agreed boundaries for the future zones of occupation, in some places by as much as 200 miles. The line of contact between Soviet and American forces at the end of hostilities was temporary. After two months in which they had held areas that had been assigned to the Soviet zone, American forces withdrew in July 1945. Some have concluded that this was a crucial move that persuaded the Soviet Union to allow American, British, and French forces into their predesignated zones in Berlin, which occurred at roughly the same time (July 1945), although the need for intelligence gathering may also have been a factor.

  • La Ocupación de Alemania ó Besatzungszeit se inició después de la derrota de la Alemania Nazi en la Segunda Guerra Mundial, al dividirse el país entre las tres potencias victoriosas y Francia. Esta división administrativa debería durar indefinidamente, no obstante, los Estados Unidos, Francia y Reino Unido fusionaron sus zonas prematuramente para contraarrestar cualquier influencia política, económica o militar desde la zona de ocupación soviética, también conocida como Alemania Oriental. El resultado de esta fusión fue el estado conocido como Alemania Occidental, y desde 1949 la división de Alemania y de su capital Berlín se convirtió en un ícono de la Guerra Fría. (es)
  • Itävalta kuului toisen maailmansodan häviäjiin. Saksa jaettiin liittoutuneiden (Yhdistynyt kuningaskunta, Neuvostoliitto, Ranska, Yhdysvallat) kesken miehitysvyöhykkeisiin. Jokainen valtio käytti valtaa omalla alueellaan ja harjoitti erilaista hallintoa ihmisten ja paikallishallinnon suhteen. Alkuperäinen suunnitelma hallita Saksaa yhdessä romuttui vuosina 1946–1947, kun idän ja lännen välit kiristyivät. (fi)
  • Le potenze alleate che sconfissero la Germania nazista nella seconda guerra mondiale divisero il Paese ad ovest della Linea Oder-Neisse in quattro zone di occupazione per scopi amministrativi durante il periodo 1945-1949. La linea di contatto tra l'Unione Sovietica e gli Stati Uniti alla fine delle ostilità era solo temporanea: dopo circa due mesi in cui gli americani avevano occupato le zone sovietiche, gli USA si ritirarono da questi territori nel luglio 1945. Alcuni hanno avanzato congetture su questo fatto, pensando che questa fu una mossa cruciale che aiutò a indurre i sovietici ad autorizzare la presenza degli americani e degli inglesi a Berlino. (it)
