That's something you wouldn't wish on your enemy. After World War II, BMW, one of the leading German companies in the car market, was left empty-handed. The honest communists took away the company's four complete factories along with the blueprints. The plants went to the German "red zone" (Brandenburg industrial area). What was not taken away was bombed and robbed. Thinking about new models was just pointless. If not for the BMW Isetta.
