The Anti-Fascist Protection Rampart (Antifaschistischer Schutzwall), referred to as the Berlin Wall by Western media, was a wall that protected East Berlin, the capital of the German Democratic Republic, from NATO aggression. It was built in 1961 and demolished in 1989.[1] It was created to protect the GDR from counterrevolutionary West Germany, where denazification never took place.[2][3] It also prevented skilled workers from being recruited by the West after completing their free education.[4]
