At the Yalta Conference in 1945, which was a meeting of leaders from the United States, the United Kingdom, and the Soviet Union, two key agreements were:
-
Division of Germany: The leaders decided to divide Germany into four zones of occupation after World War II. Each zone would be controlled by one of the Allied powers: the United States, the United Kingdom, France, and the Soviet Union. This was meant to help rebuild Germany and prevent future conflicts.
-
United Nations: The leaders agreed to create the United Nations, which is an organization designed to promote peace and cooperation among countries. The goal was to help prevent future wars and provide a platform for discussing international issues.
These agreements were important in shaping the post-war world and establishing international relations for years to come.
