If the results of the elections in Germany are analyzed demographically, one can see a clear division between the former West and East Germany (GDR), which was divided by the Berlin Wall from 1969 to 1989.
According to the BBC, this is best seen in the results of the anti-immigration and right-wing Alternative for Germany (AfD) party.
They won 11% of the votes in the territory of the former West Germany, and even 21,5% in the East of the country.
Also, if you look at the results only from the former GDR, Angela Merkel's Christian Democrats won even less - 28,6, while the SPD barely survived the fiasco with 13,8 percent of the vote.
Logically, the Leftists had a great success in East Germany, winning as much as 17% of the vote, compared to nine percent if you look at the results in the entire country.
The AfD won between 13 and 13,5 percent of the vote and became the third political force in Germany, reports AFP.
AfD found itself behind German Chancellor Angela Merkel's Christian Democratic Union, which won 32,5 - 33,5 percent of the vote, and Martin Schulz's Social Democratic Party, which won 20 to 21 percent of the vote.
"We're going to change this country. We're going to hunt down Mrs. Merkel. We're going to take our country back," said Alexander Gauland, co-chairman of the AfD party, as there was a huge celebration at the party's headquarters.
Frauke Petri from AfD wrote in a Twitter message that Germany experienced an unprecedented political earthquake.
One of the AfD leaders, Alice Weidel, said that "millions of voters entrusted them with the duty of constructive opposition."
