Line 95:
=== Constitution ===
The Khmer Rouge abolished the [[Royal Government of National Union of Kampuchea]] (established in 1970). Cambodia did not have any sort of government until the proclamation of the [[Constitution of Democratic Kampuchea]] on 5 January 1976.{{citation needed|date=March 2021}}
The Khmer Rouge continued to use King [[Norodom Sihanouk]] as a figurehead for the government until 2 April 1976, when Sihanouk resigned as head of state. Sihanouk remained under insecure house arrest in Phnom Penh, until late in the war with Vietnam when he departed for the United States where he made Democratic Kampuchea's case before the Security Council. He eventually relocated to China.
