Summary/Abstract: The paper deals with the process of the economic unification of East and West Germany on the twentieth anniversary of the reunification. The paper outlines the objectives of the reforms in the former GDR and related expenditures. The process of economic convergence of both parts of the country has been examined through the prism of the main macroeconomic indicators, the key to long-term economic growth. The considerations are focused on the pace of “catching up” by the poorer on the richer regions, the reasons for the persistence of disparities and the prospects for further development.
