In 1979 Vietnamese communist troops invaded Cambodia and liberated the people from the Khmer Rouge regime. The turmoil disrupted agriculture, leading to a small rice harvest. International food relief attempted to alleviate the devastating famine that followed. The Vietnamese continued to rule Cambodia as a communist country. People were organised into communal work groups to work on the land. In 1989, after a decade of rule, the Vietnamese agreed to leave Cambodia due to international economic pressure.
