What was Vietnamization?
No one used to say, "Republic of South Vietnam", or "I'm going to South Vietnam", it was usually said as, "I'm going to Vietnam", hence the word Vietnam...when in reality we were headed for SOUTH Vietnam, Vietnam was two separate countries. North and South Vietnam were simply countries in the south eastern portion of Asia (on the continent of Eurasia). You certainly weren't going to NORTH Vietnam. Not unless you were either an aircrewman or pilot. Those men actually fought in the skies of NORTH Vietnam. Aerial dog-fights (air combat) over South Vietnam rarely if ever happened. Nearly, if not all, of our POWs were airmen shot down over NORTH Vietnam.
What happened to the democratic government in Vietnam?
Vietnam has never had a democratic government, so nothing has ever happened to this non-existent entity. If you are referring to the Republic of Vietnam (often called South Vietnam), which was a regime in the south of Vietnam from 1954-1975, this country was not a democracy. Although it has the word "Republic" in its name, it was really a state ruled by a strongman who was deeply beholden to US interests. As for what happened to this country, when the US withdrew military forces from Vietnam in 1973, the North Vietnamese Army overran the defenses of South Vietnam and conquered the country, bringing Vietnam into united Communist rule.
When and how did the Vietnam war end?
The war officially ended for the United States with the Paris Peace Accords of January 1973. The main stipulation dictated that American troops would leave and that North Vietnam would not attack South Vietnam. It is widely known that the U.S. and North Vietnam secretly negotiated a specific time-frame upon which the North could eventually invade the South without making it look like the U.S. had simply abandoned its South Vietnamese allies. Whatever the negotiation, the North invaded in April 1975. By then, the Americans did nothing to defend the South, and the nation of Vietnam was reunified for the first time since 1954. It has remained so ever since.
