( Deutsche Demokratische Republik) GDR (= German Democratic Republic), East Germany umg.* * *die DDR(Abk.: Deutsche Demokratische Republik) German Democratic Republic; GDR* * *I DDR is the abbreviated name of the former East Germany (Deutsche Demokratische Republik). The DDR was created in 1949 out of the Soviet-occupied zone of Germany and evolved into a Warsaw Pact state. Its economy, government and society were closely based on those of the Soviet Union. In 1961 the DDR cut itself off even further from West Germany and the West in general with the construction of the Berlin Wall. By the end of the 1980s increasing numbers of civil rights groups were protesting against its harsh regime, and demanding reforms. The huge pressure exerted by this "velvet revolution" brought about the collapse of the economically weak socialist system in the autumn of 1989. On October 3rd 1990 Germany was re-unified and the DDR became part of the Bundesrepublik Deutschland.
