AP European History
Unit 9 – Cold War and Contemporary Europe
Topic 9.5
How might East and West Germany's reunification have unfolded differently if Soviet President Mikhail Gorbachev hadn't introduced his policies of Glasnost and Perestroika?
It wouldn't take place at all because these policies weren't influential in German reunification process.
Reunification would likely happen sooner due to increased pressure from other global powers.
East Germany would become an independent nation instead of unifying with West Germany.
It could potentially be delayed due to sustained political tension between East and West Germany.
