Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Throughout the 1970s, Afghanistan's government became increasingly authoritarian. In 1973, a bloodless coup by General Mohammed Daoud Khan overthrew the monarchy and established a republic. Khan's regime was characterized by repression and political persecution, including the execution of political opponents and censorship of the media. In 1978, another coup led by the communist People's Democratic Party of Afghanistan (PDPA) overthrew Khan, leading to a decade of Soviet occupation and civil war.
