Answer
A

B
East Germany chose to reunite with West Germany in 1990.
C
East Germany invaded West Germany to create a single country in 1992.
D
East Germany's land was split between three countries in 1995.

Explanation

East Germany (the German Democratic Republic) ceased to exist in 1990 when it joined the Federal Republic of Germany, commonly called West Germany, in reunification. This was a political union, not the result of an invasion by Poland or East Germany. Therefore, the true statement is that East Germany chose to reunite with West Germany in 1990.
