Both the US peoples and the US congress had lost all support for US involvement in the war, When President Nixon was elected he was keen to end the war but he wanted 'peace with honour' so he decided to pull troops out gradually and increase bombing raids on the North and Cambodia distract attention. This was known as 'Vietnamisation'. A cease fire was called in 1972, this caused nearly all American involvement to end. The war then offically ended in 1975 with the fall of saigon to communism, this was followed by the fall of the whole south, reunification was acheived by force. Laos and Cambodia also fell to communism shortly after.
