Two out of ten French people don't know anything about the end of communism in Europe. Of those who learned about it, most did so through television or newspapers, while a few learned in school or from parents. Some could name leaders like Vaclav Havel or Lecj Walesa. The events mentioned included the fall of the Berlin Wall, Solidarnosc strikes in Poland, and the Velvet Revolution in Czechoslovakia. When asked if it was important, some felt German reunification or the end of the Cold War were most significant, while others cited former communist countries joining the EU or economic changes in Europe.
