At the time of reunification, the German military boasted a manpower of some 585,000 soldiers. As part of the German reunification process, under the Treaty on the Final Settlement with Respect to Germany (Two-Plus Four Treaty), which paved the way for reunification, the "Bundeswehr" was to be reduced to 370,000 personnel, of whom no more than 345,000 were to be in the Army and Air Force. This would be Germany's contribution to the Treaty on Conventional Armed Forces in Europe, and the restrictions would enter into force at the time the CFE treaty would. As a result, the "Bundeswehr" was significantly reduced, and the former East German "Nationale Volksarmee" (NVA) was disbanded, with a portion of its personnel and material being absorbed into the "Bundeswehr".
