| | Judgment in Berlin - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Judgment in Berlin is a book by federal judge Herbert Jay Stern about a hijacking trial in the United States Court for Berlin in 1979, over which he presided. |
 | | From the end of World War II in 1945 until the reunification of Germany in October 1990, Berlin was divided into four sectors: the American Sector, the French Sector, the British Sector, and the Soviet Sector, each named after the occupying power. |
 | | The Soviet Sector, informally called East Berlin, was effectively governed as a part of East Germany, then a Warsaw Pact state under communism, and the American, French, and British Sectors, collectively called West Berlin, were effectively governed as parts of West Germany, a member of NATO. |
