Best Answer

The decision to divide Germany into four zones of occupation was made by the Allies (United States, Soviet Union, Britain, and France) at the end of World War II. It was primarily done to prevent Germany from becoming a unified and potentially powerful country that could pose a threat to European security, as it had done in the past. Additionally, the division allowed the Allies to maintain control and oversee the process of denazification and reconstruction in Germany.
