Tuhia he tomokanga mo tenei waahanga - Ko te Federation o Arapia ki te Tonga me te Kaitiaki o Arapia ki te Tonga i whakakotahihia hei Republic of People o Yemen ki te Tonga i te 30 o Noema 1967 a muri iho ka huri i tona ingoa ki te People's Democratic Republic of Yemen. I noho hei Marxist-Leninist kotahi-rōpū i te 1969 a i tautokohia e Cuba, East Germany me te Soviet Union. Koia anake te kāwanatanga kōmihana i whakatūria ki te ao Arapi. Ahakoa ōna kaha ki te kawe mai i te pūmautanga ki te rohe, i uru ia ki tētahi pakanga rangatiratanga poto i te tau 1986
He aha? I te hinganga o te communism, i whakakotahihia a Yemen ki te Tonga me te Yemen Arab Republic, e mohiotia ana ko "Yemen ki te Raki", i te 22 o Mei 1990 ki te hanga i te Republic of Yemen o tenei ra. I muri i nga tau e toru, he raru torangapu i puta i waenga i te YSP o te Tonga me nga roopu GPC me Islah o te Raki i muri i nga pooti paremata i te tau 1993. I kii a Yemen ki te Tonga i tana wehenga mai i Yemen ki te Raki i te tau 1994; ko te kawanatanga wehe hou kaore i mohiotia, ko te Manapori Manapori o Yemen, i mutu me tana whakakorenga me te raki o Yemen e noho ana ki Yemen ki te Tonga i muri i te pakanga a te iwi o te tau 1994. Ko tetahi atu ngana ki te whakahoki mai i te Tonga o Yemen, hei whenua anake, ehara i te kawanatanga hapori, me te Kaunihera Whakawhiti ki te Tonga hei kawanatanga hou, i tiimata mai i te 2017 ana kua haere tonu mai i taua wa.
