Traditional ceremonies are "normally" at least a weeklong celebration to let the town/neighbors know that two families have come together in marriage... Modern ceremonies are more forgiving and last from a day to three days (depending on how many rituals the couple/families would like to include).

He ordered the executions of more than 2 million people.

To say goodbye to someone you have met for the first time, someone older than you or to be formal, you say "chumriep leah" and press your palms together and to your chest, head bowed.

With friends & acquaintances, peers etc., you say "leah hai!" with a big Khmer smile. :)

Yes,under the control of Pol Pot,the Khmer Rouge killed or enslaved doctors and teachers and anyone else who was middle class(bourgiose)or members of the Khmer Bleu and their civilian supporters.Not only were Cambodians killed,but also foreign nationals.This occurred from 1975 until 1978 when the Khmer Rouge entered Vietnam.Vietnam invaded the country and forced the Khmer Rouge deep into the jungle areas,where over time they disbanded.Pol Pot was arrested in the late 1980's and died in prison awaiting trail for war crimes.He was in his mid/late-70s when he died.How many people died under his rule is unclear but thought to be approx.1.7million.Today the population of Cambodia is approx. 13million.

Yes, Cambodia has a higher number of women than men. According to recent statistics, women make up a slightly larger portion of the population, with the sex ratio favoring females. This demographic trend is influenced by various factors, including higher life expectancy for women and historical events that have impacted the male population.

The Khmer Rouge, a radical communist regime in Cambodia from 1975 to 1979, is primarily prosecuted for crimes against humanity, including genocide, torture, forced labor, and the execution of perceived political enemies. Their brutal policies led to the deaths of an estimated 1.7 million people through starvation, overwork, and mass killings. The Extraordinary Chambers in the Courts of Cambodia (ECCC) was established to bring key leaders to justice for these atrocities. Notable figures like Pol Pot and other senior leaders faced trials for their roles in this devastating period of Cambodian history.

Fabric design in Cambodia is rich in cultural significance and reflects the country's history, traditions, and identity. Traditional textiles, such as silk and cotton, often feature intricate patterns and motifs inspired by Khmer culture, nature, and religious beliefs. These designs not only showcase the artistry and craftsmanship of local weavers but also serve as a means of preserving and passing down cultural heritage through generations. The vibrant colors and patterns in Cambodian fabric often tell stories, representing community, spirituality, and social status.

Pol Pot was the Prime Minister of Cambodia from 1976 to 1979, during the period when the Khmer Rouge regime held power. He was a key figure in implementing radical communist policies that led to widespread atrocities, including genocide, resulting in the deaths of an estimated 1.7 million people. His government aimed to transform Cambodia into an agrarian socialist society, which ultimately led to economic collapse and social devastation. Pol Pot's rule ended when Vietnamese forces invaded Cambodia in 1979, leading to his ousting.

The Khmer Rouge (literally Red Khmers) were the Communist guerillas in Cambodia in the early 1970s. They were created, trained, funded and equipped by North Viet Nam. After the United States Congress, in violation of its treaty obligations, cut off all military aid to South Viet Nam and Cambodia, both of those countries fell to Communist rule in April of 1975. South Viet Nam was conquered by North Viet Nam and Cambodia was taken over by the Khmer Rouge. Over the next three years the Khmer Rouge killed nearly half the population in Cambodia.

The U.S. invasion of Cambodia occurred almost immediately at the end of the hugely unpopular war in Viet Nam. The invasion was mostly conducted by air attacks, in which the United States flew almost 4,000 sorties and dropped more than 540,000 tons of bombs on Cambodia. Our aim was the ouster of Prince Nordom Sihanouk from power, and it was achieved by the imposition on Cambodia of a government led by Lon Nol and supported by the United States which avoided, for a small time, the eventual takeover of the country by forces of the Khmer Rouge or Khmer Communist Party led by Pol Pot, who would eventually slaughter more than a million of his countrymen, including almost all of those Cambodians who had any formal education.

The reaction of American college students was at first muted, because most of the American operations in Cambodia took place in very strict secrecy. However, when the rumors of the Cambodian invasion turned into palpable knowledge of its existence, many American college students who had been active in the movement against the war in Viet Nam protested and displayed great anger against the Nixon Administration and the architect of the invasion, Dr. Henry Kissinger.

Pol Pot lost power in Cambodia in 1979 when the Vietnamese military invaded and overthrew the Khmer Rouge regime, which he led. The invasion was prompted by border conflicts and the Khmer Rouge's brutal policies, which had resulted in widespread suffering and death. Following their defeat, Pol Pot and remaining Khmer Rouge leaders retreated to remote areas, where they continued to operate as a guerrilla force but never regained power. Ultimately, Pol Pot's regime collapsed due to internal strife, external military intervention, and loss of support both domestically and internationally.

Pol Pot was removed from power in Cambodia in January 1979 when Vietnamese forces invaded the country, leading to the collapse of his Khmer Rouge regime. The invasion was prompted by ongoing border conflicts and the Khmer Rouge's brutal policies, which had resulted in widespread suffering and genocide. After the Vietnamese takeover, a new government was established, and Pol Pot retreated to the jungle, where he continued to lead the Khmer Rouge until his eventual capture and death in 1998.

The Khmer Rouge combined several extremists government ideas. Their social policy focused on achieving a purely agrarian society and used ethnic cleansing campaigns and executions to hasten their goals. The Khmer Rouge leader, Pol Pot, once said it was his goal to '[achieve] a complete Communist society without wasting time on the intermediate steps.'
