Prussia during 1985

Dear Journal,
During this time Gorbachev of the Soviet Union is forming dictatorship of reform. He intends to start a revolution against communism. Germany has become unified and ended the Cold War which took place just last year in 1990. The Paris Accord, brought 25 Europeans countries together. I was able to go and attend the meeting. Within the meeting they discussed the United States becoming a world superpower. Europe is finally coming together and forming equal rights for all citizens. Yet, each country still maintains their own opinions on certain wars and treaties. Immigration is starting to grow within Europe. Many from Africa and Asia are coming over to us and looking for jobs and work. They want to get away from all of the corruption and war going on in such places as Afghanistan. Much is being created and formed rapidly through Europe lately.
Until soon

Prussia and WWII

During World War II Prussia went through many changes. For example, during World War II, Hitler formally became the governor of Prussia. Prussia also gaind lands and territories during World War II. The Prussian lands that were transferred to Poland after the Treaty of Versailles, were re-annexed during World War II. Unfortunatly, most of this territory was not given back to Prussia but given to Nazi Germany. When Germany was divided into occupations zones part of east Prussia was divided. In the Western Zones of occupation the former Prussian territories were divided up among North Rhine-Westphalia, Lower Saxony, Hesse, Rhineland-Palatinate, and Schleswig-Holstein. The northeastern part of East Prussia was annexed by the USSR, and the remainder was put under Polish administration.

Germany's (Prussia's) Involvement in the Cold War (Ch. 30)

Well, as you know by now, Prussia is now Germany. And following our defeat in World War II and the emergence of the Cold War, Germany has split, symbolizing the division between the east and west. Ever since World War II has ended, us Germans have endured great hostility from other countries. I have heard person accounts of German soldiers having relations w with foreign women from enemy countries like Norway. The product of these affairs, the innocent children, are the ones who are taking the hit for their German fathers. In countries such as Denmark, people are boycotting all things German, showing their hatred in the abuse of German refugees. During last year, 1945, alone 7000 German children under the age of 5 died as a result of being denied sufficient food and denied medical attention by Danish doctors who refused to be viewed as traitors by aiding Germans. How can they be so heartless? How do they not realize that more German refugees are dying in Danish camps than Danes did during the entire war? When will the persecution stop? I suppose I sound utterly hypocritical for the persecution we have forced on other people.
