virginia was divided east and west. many of the issues between these two sections were a microcosm of the larger issues that was facing the country. one of the biggest issues facing virginia were the allegheny mountains separating virginia essentially in half. these mountains were a natural barrier for transportation and communication. they affected trade, the farmers and this burgeoning industry that you have in western virginia. they found it much easier to get their goods to market on the ohio river and take them west to ohio or up to pittsburgh in western pennsylvania. as much, western virginia felt much more closely aligned to the north and west than it did to tide water, virginia. as an example, i'm from wheeling, which is up here in the northern panhandle. we're about 50 miles south of pittsburgh and more than 300 miles away from richmond. another issue facing the two sections was slavery. the census counted nearly 1.6 million people living in the state. and of that number, nearly 500,000 were slaves. that's abou

west germany. they were taught the east germans had actively no responsibility for hitler for the holocaust. that was the responsibility of the capitalists. when the walls had fallen had to completely revise the textbooks in east germany. they did this in conjunction with the west german's so students in both parts of germany had a similar curriculum. the other question is, how do you look on the communist state? you had on the show some sense there are people in the eastern germany that look back on those communist days what is certain about a nostalgia. they forget maybe the worst parts of it and they think maybe it was not such a bad life. it was not as competitive. people related to each other differently. on the question of textbooks, they are constantly rethinking how one approaches this. it's a challenge in the eastern germany for them to understand the full brunt of their own history. >> i want to talk about the birth of the berlin wall. august 12 and 13 is considered the day the wall began
