6:01Now PlayingOctober 3 2020 marks 30 years since German reunification. But how did the country become divided into East and West in the first place? And how united do Germans really feel that their country is today? Rachel heads to Berlin and Potsdam to find out more about communism, capitalism and "Ostalgie."
Rachel moved from the UK to Germany in 2016. As a relative newcomer she casts a fresh eye over German clichés and shares her experiences of settling into German life. Every two weeks she explores a new topic – from allotment gardens to money to language. This week it's all about German reunification and what led up to it.
