South Vietnam, officially the Republic of Vietnam (RVN), Vietnamese Việt Nam Cộng Hòa, was an anti-communist led country that existed from 1955 to 1975 in the territory of Vietnam that lay south of the 17th parallel while North Vietnam was situated to the north of the 17th parallel. South Vietnam was proclaimed in Saigon by Ngo Dinh Diem on October 22, 1955. Founding of South Vietnam was based on the support of the United States. But there is debate about how closely South Vietnam was linked to the United States, which was a strong supporter of the country. South Vietnam continued the war with the Viet Cong for a long time following American troop withdrawal. However, finally it surrendered to North Vietnam and the Communist Republic of South Vietnam formed by the National Liberation Front (NLF) on April 30, 1975. After that, the Republic of South Vietnam took power and established the Provisional Revolutionary Government of the Republic of South Vietnam until the unified Socialist Republic of Vietnam was inaugurated on July 2, 1976.
