My school's library has a very interesting book on the history of the Stasi(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stasi). I was very surprised by the fact that the book basically stated roughly one out of every fifteen or so people in East Germany worked for the Stasi in one way or another. Since I don't know much about the various East Bloc secret police forces(excluding the KGB---I have a friend from Belarus whose uncle was in the KGB before the collapse of the SU) and the Stasi) I was wondering if anybody knew a lot about the various groups?
