In addition to Germany (the other response posted), the answer could also be:

Korea

Details:

  • Germany was divided into East Germany (communist, overseen by the Soviet Union) and West Germany, overseen by Britain, France and the United States.
  • Korea was divided in two at the end of World War II, with the Soviet Union occupying the north, and the United States occupying the south. Prior to World War II, Japan had been in control of the Korean peninsula.
