The Soviets were Communists and Communists are not a good sign. The Soviets (communists) were bold and didn't care about a thing except world Domination which led to the cold war. Anyways Communists always had to control everything and have everything. Communists ain't like that today but they do act like it sometimes.
At the conclusion of WW 2, the Western allies sought democratic governments for Eastern Europe and basically for all of Europe. The Soviets under Joseph Stalin had other ideas. Their armies essentially occupied the Eastern nations where they had driven out the Nazi armies. The Soviets had an expansionist ideology and installed communist governments in the nations of Eastern Europe. This included East Germany.
When the Soviets marched through eastern Europe they occupied it and therefore it was communist.
After WW2, it was the cold war. The USSR had the WARSAW Pact countries: East Germany and Eastern Europe. In Asia it was North Korea and North Vietnam, they weren't occupied, nor part of WARSAW Pact, but were supported by the Red Chinese and Soviets.
