The '''{{wp|Berlin Wall}}''' (German: '''''Berliner Mauer''''') was a concrete barrier that physically divided {{wp|West Berlin}} and {{wp|East Berlin}} from each other. It was constructed in 1961 and was destroyed in 1989, though some smaller segments of it still remain. Despite its deep political origins, it has appeared a few times within ''[[Super Mario (franchise)|Super Mario]]'' media. | |||

{{quote|The Berlin Wall was built by East Germany in 1961. The undeclared "Cold War" between Communist East Germany and democratic West Germany convinced the leaders they could no longer cooperate as one nation. East German soldiers guarded the wall to keep its citizens from escaping into West Berlin. In 1989, after 28 years, the Communist government opened the gates. The German people hated the Wall and began to tear it down. In a few months it had almost completely disappeared, but pieces of it can still be seen on the streets.|'''Pamphlet'''|Mario is Missing!

The Berlin Wall is one of the landmarks of [[Berlin]] visited by [[Luigi]] in the DOS version of ''[[Mario is Missing! (PC)|Mario is Missing!]]''. In a raid on the city, [[Bowser]] sends his [[Koopa Troopa]]s to steal one [[brick from the Berlin Wall]], which forces it to close down. [[Luigi]] must find and return the brick so that the Berlin Wall can reopen to tourists. However, in order to prove the brick's authenticity, he must answer two trivia questions with the correct answers, written here in bold: | The Berlin Wall is one of the landmarks of [[Berlin]] visited by [[Luigi]] in the DOS version of ''[[Mario is Missing!
