The only ground meat pie with a pastry crust that I'm aware of is tortiere... No pastry in Canada either, nor does that appeal. The only ground meat pie with a pastry crust that I'm aware of is tortiere, also delicious. Pot pies generally have something chunky and stewish inside (beef or chicken).
Germany never did. East Germany became communist in 1945 when the USSR ocupied it after WW II.
Rather, West Germany effectively absorbed East Germany. Accordingly, on Unification Day, 3 October 1990, the German Democratic Republic ceased to exist, and five new Federal States on its former territory joined the Federal Republic of Germany.eunification did, however, lead to a large rise in the average standard of living in former Eastern Germany and a stagnation in the West as $2 trillion in public spending was transferred East. Between 1990 and 1995, gross wages in the east rose from 35% to 74% of western levels, while pensions rose from 40% to 79%.
