This paper examines the reasons why the collapse of the East German system in 1989 would be classed as unexpected. The way in which it came about is discussed, and the paper assesses whether external or internal forces were responsible for the collapse. The reasons why the collapse happened when it did are evaluated, and the erosion of bloc unity is discussed.
