@kolya @kaia That one had been botched beyond belief. Western Germany ate all Eastern debt, destroyed or sold out what was left of the industrial base there (after the manager of the Treuhandanstalt had been assassinated), left the infrastructure, scrapped the soviet weaponry inherited from the National People's Army and overall alienated east and west from each other. And there is also the rumor of SED remnants taking over the reunited country from the inside.
