The People's Republic of Kampuchea (PRK; (クメール語:សាធារណរដ្ឋប្រជាមានិតកម្ពុជា ''Sathéaranakrâth Pracheameanit Kâmpŭchéa'')) was founded in Cambodia by the Salvation Front, a group of Cambodian leftists dissatisfied with the Khmer Rouge, after the overthrow of Democratic Kampuchea, Pol Pot's government. Brought about by an invasion from the Socialist Republic of Vietnam, which routed the Khmer Rouge armies, it had Vietnam and the Soviet Union as its main allies. The PRK failed to secure United Nations endorsement due to the diplomatic intervention of the People's Republic of China, the United Kingdom, the United States, and the ASEAN countries. The Cambodian seat at the United Nations was held by the Coalition Government of Democratic Kampuchea, which was the Khmer Rouge in coalition with two non-communist guerrilla factions. However, the PRK was considered the ''de facto'' government of Cambodia between 1979 and 1993, albeit with limited international recognition. The PRK was renamed the State of Cambodia (SOC) ((クメール語:រដ្ឋកម្ពុជា, ''Rath Kâmpŭchéa'')) during the last four years of its existence in an attempt to attract international sympathy.〔Michael Leifer, ''Dictionary of the modern politics of South-East Asia''〕 It retained, however, most of its leadership and single-party structure, while undergoing a transition and eventually giving way to the restoration of the Kingdom of Cambodia. The PRK/SOC existed as a socialist state from 1979 until 1991, the year in which the ruling single party abandoned its Marxist-Leninist ideology. The PRK was established in the wake of the total destruction of the country's institutions, infrastructure and intelligentsia wreaked by Khmer Rouge rule. Despite its inherent weaknesses and the odds stacked against it, which included being dismissed as a "puppet state" of Vietnam and being imposed grievous economic sanctions, as well as a debilitating Civil War, the PRK/SOC remained stronger than its enemies.〔Sorpong Peou, ''Intervention & change in Cambodia; Towards Democracy?'', ISBN 0-312-22717-5 ISBN 978-0312227173〕 Overcoming grinding poverty and isolation, it was able to achieve the reconstruction of Cambodia as a nation. ==Historical background== The PRK was established in January 1979 as a result of a process that began with Khmer Rouge belligerence. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「People's Republic of Kampuchea」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
