Shape post-war Germany. This conference is formally known as the Three Powers Conference of Berlin. The Potsdam Conference lasted several weeks, beginning on July 17 and ending on August 2 of 1945. The conference took place at the palace of Ceciliendorf.

The conference included the three big leaders, who were Joseph Stalin, Winston Churchill, and Harry Truman. One of the main agreements that came out of the conference was disarming Germany. This was done by destroying their shipyards. The agreement also called to "denazify" Germany, which was to get rid of the Nazi mindsets that were once overrunning the country.
