The correct order is "Gorbachev initiated glasnost, the Hungarians introduced reforms, East Germans protested, and the Berlin Wall fell. " Gorbachev introduced Glasnost in the late 1980s in an attempt to improve transparency in the Soviet Union. In January 1989, Hungary passed a law allowing the formation of political parties. In October 1989, anti-government protests took place in East Gemany. On November 9th 1989, the Berlin wall fell.
