Answer
- B 1=Great Britain, 2=Soviet Union, 3=USA, 4=France
Explanation
The British zone lay in the northwest (roughly today's Lower Saxony, North Rhine-Westphalia, Schleswig-Holstein and Hamburg), and the Soviet zone in the east. The Americans occupied the south with Bavaria and Hesse, the French the southwest on the border with France. On the map, therefore, 1 is Great Britain, 2 the Soviet Union, 3 the USA and 4 France.
