Alliance for Germany
The Alliance for Germany was an opposition coalition in East Germany. It was formed on 5 February 1990 in Berlin to stand in the East-German Volkskammer elections. It consisted of the Christian Democratic Union, Democratic Awakening and the German Social Union. The German Forum Party was invited to join, but declined.
The Alliance won the most votes in the 1990 East German general election, winning 48.2% of votes cast, and would control 192 of 400 seats in the Volkskammer. It formed the interim-government in East Germany until German Reunification. Lothar de Maizière from the CDU was minister-president.
