People's Republic of Daidieu

The People's Republic of Sohainesia (Sohainesian: 蘇海共和仁民), also described as the Kimnalsilist Regime, was the Sohainesian state under a one-party Marxist-Leninist totalitarian dictatorship that existed between 1972 and 1984. It was controlled by the Sohainesian Communist Party (CPS) and allies, and it was founded when Kim Nal-sil overthrew Bang Hi-sen's government.

During the Kimnalsilist regime, the Communist Party and related organizations were responsible for the deaths of several thousands of Sohainesians through forced labour and genocide, until the outbreak of a civil war in 1973. This resulted in a defeat for the communists, so the government was replaced by the Republic of Sohainesia, which would become the Kingdom of Sohainesia in 1985 after people advocated for the restoration of the monarchy.

Establishment
On Novenber 22, 1972, Communist Party leader Kim Nal-sil deposed Thành Cang as the head of state and Bang Hi-sen as the head of government. The military coup d'etat was supported in North Vietnam, Mongolia, the Warsaw Pact, and the Soviet Union.

The French community, realizing that Sohainesia became a Marxist-Leninist one-party state, fled to France for safety. Reacting to this, the Communist Party banned travel to all US-aligned countries starting on January 1, 1973. This made travel to France more difficult.

Education
Under the Kimnalsilist regime, Sohainesia abolished the French style of education. During communist rule, it was mandatory to have portraits of Kim Nal-sil inside classrooms. In addition, French was removed as a language of education and was replaced by Chinese and Vietnamese.

Health
Health facilities in the PRS were undeveloped. The life expectancy dropped from 71.82 in 1970 to 66.28 in 1980, and the life expectancy would only return to normal levels in 1988. Western medicine was outlawed and replaced by traditional medicine.

Religion
Religion was outlawed by the Constitution. The largest and most-visited Buddhist temple in the city was converted into a political prison by the name of Camp 001. Buddhist monks were sentenced to death just for visiting temples. Most of the religious buildings were also converted into political prisoners. Abrahamic religions such as Christianity, Judaism, and Islam were even more persecuted, and Buddhism was removed as a state religion.

Ethnic minorities
The PRS banned all existence of all ethnic minorities, except for the Vietnamese. Selected ethnic groups were forced to leave Sohainesia due to the government's mass killings of ethnic minorities. Austronesian people, which the Sohainesian government refered them as Champa, had to hide in the mountains.

Red Terror
"Main article: Red Terror (Sohainesia)"During the PRS' existance from 1972 to 1984, many political opponents were silenced and never seen again. The Sohainesian police force targeted people who were considered "an enemy of the state". These included:

Those people would then be taken to "re-education camps" and be tortured and killed. The communist government censored the death toll, citing only 1,000 people died during this time, whereas some historians place it as high as 200,000.
 * Intellectuals
 * Political dissidents and members of the former National Democratic Party. Later many CPS members were also killed because they were suspected of "plotting against Kim Na-sil".
 * Ethnic groups: Europeans (mostly journalists), indigenous, Champa, Chinese (especially Taiwanese)
 * Religious people
 * Mentally and physically disabled people

The torture and violations of the PRS came to worldwide attention in 1983, when a Canadian journalist named William Michaels was found dead in his Vancouver home after writing articles criticizing the government.
