Die Wende marks the beginning of the Reunification process between East Germany and West Germany. Following, The Autumn Revolution and the Berlin Wall collapse on November, 9 1989. The German word Wende (change, turning point) has taken on a new meaning since Nov. 9, 1989. Seit der Wende means "since reunification" or "since the Wall fell"—literally, "since the change." The period has been marked by West German aid to East, a total reaching an estimated $775 billion over 10 years. Unfortunately, this burden greatlv diminished much of the initial enthusiasm the Westerners felt for the prospect of reunification

This "turning point" has marked the reunification of The Greater Germany. Reuniting countless families and friends. Opening Germany to a new era of fortune and peace. Die Wende has become synonomous with the fall of the Wall, and that of the Soviet Union. Largely credible to American Foreign Policy directed by then President Ronald Reagon.
