Reunification Treaty

The Reunification Treaty, formally known as the "Treaty of German Reunification," was established on October 3, 1990, to formally unite East and West Germany after decades of division during the Cold War. Signed by the leaders of both German states and the four Allied powers, it outlined the terms for merging their governments, economies, and societies. The treaty marked the end of the Berlin Wall's legacy and aimed to integrate the two regions politically, socially, and economically, fostering a single democratic nation. This date is now celebrated as Germany’s Unity Day.
