Official answer: B · Die heutigen fünf östlichen Bundesländer sind der Bundesrepublik Deutschland beigetreten.
The DDR was not occupied: its freely elected parliament (Volkskammer) decided to join under Article 23 of the Grundgesetz (Basic Law, Germany's constitution). On 3 October 1990 the five new states (and East Berlin) became part of the Federal Republic.
