quotation
Die DDR ging aus der Sowjetischen Besatzungszone (SBZ) hervor, die infolge der Besetzung und Teilung Deutschlands nach 1945 zustande gekommen war. Auf Betreiben der sowjetischen Militärregierung errichtete die Sozialistische Einheitspartei Deutschlands (SED) ein diktatorisches, als „real existierender Sozialismus“ bezeichnetes Regime, das bis zur friedlichen Revolution im Herbst 1989 existierte.
