Answer: C. The Cold War

Explanation: The Berlin blockade occurred between June 24, 1948 and May 12, 1949. It was one of the first major international crises in the Cold War. After the defeat of Germany and its division into areas of interest by the Western Allies and the Soviet Union, the Berlin Blockade was an attempt by the USSR to disrupt the influence of France, Britain and the United States. In this attempt, the Soviet Union blocked railway, road and canal access to Western allies in Berlin areas under the control of Western allies.
