Idiot Amin was replaced following a military coup led by Tanzanian forces and Ugandan exiles in April 1979. The conflict arose after Amin's regime faced increasing internal dissent and external pressure due to human rights abuses and economic decline. The Tanzanian military invaded Uganda, ultimately leading to Amin's flight from the country, and the establishment of a new government under Milton Obote. Amin's departure marked the end of his brutal dictatorship, which lasted from 1971 to 1979.
