Cambodia

No. Cambodia is a tropical country, so oak trees do not grow there, since they need a temperate climate.

The Angkor Civilization borrowed much of its culture from Indian Buddhist Missionaries. As a result, they took on Buddhism as a main religion after it superseded Hinduism. They were not subjected to any forced conversions afterwards.

It means Cambodian Red, and was first used by Norodom Sihanouk in a derogatory way to refer to leftists or those sympathetic to them in the National Assembly and later the armed rebels based in the rural areas. They were known as Khmer Krahom to most Cambodian people, Krahom being the Khmer word for the colour red.

the best way to get the question is from what a kid thinks. I would build a college there. I'm only a kid so i cant do that. that's what i think get opinions from other kids to and see what they think.

Phnom Penh is the capital city of Cambodia. The latitudinal and longitudinal coordinates for the city of Phnom Penh are 11o33'N, 104o55'E.

Most of the population is still involved in agrarian work; however, the textile industry has come and many Khmer are now involved in secondary industry.

White collar workers are present as the emerging middle class; however, their wages are rather paltry at around $500 pm (a very good wage).

For foreigners with no skills, there is always English tutoring at around ten bucks an hour.

Some skilled foreigners make money, professional teachers here can make about the western average wage with far less tax and far lower expenses.

The only huge money to be made is in government (for Khmer) or property development (for foreigners).

Yes. However, you can get a VISA on-arrival at most points-of-entry into Cambodia for around €20.

13 N 105 E is Prasat Balangk, Cambodia

No. The exact reverse happened. Laos and Cambodia were Western-oriented constitutional monarchies in 1960. By the end of the Vietnam War in 1975, both countries became Communist dictatorships.

Cambodia music has a lot of influences to it. These include Hindu, Portuguese, Spanish, and Vietnam influences that made it what it is today.

Cambodia was ruled by Khmer Rouge from 1975-1979, when Vietnam invaded. Cambodia is now ruled by it's own government and the prime minister is Hun Sen

although it might change because of the elections soon

Even though the bigger part of the population was Buddhist, the Khmer kings always remained Hindu, the King had a connection to Vishnu and Angkor Wat was dedicated to him, before it was turned into a Buddhist temple.

Cambodia was a constitutional monarchy under King Norodom Sihanouk and later his son Prince Norodom Sihanouk. While visiting Beijing in 1970 the prince was ousted by a military coup led by Prime Minister General Lon Nol and Prince Sisowath Sirik Matak,

As a result of the Vietnam War, both Laos and Cambodia were destabilized. Their pre-war monarchies were replaced with Communist governments supported by Vietnam and China. In Cambodia, this government was the Khmer Rouge, which was later removed from power in 1979 by the Vietnamese. The Lao People's Republic remains in power to this day.

The cambodian national anthem was written by Chuon Nath (off wikipedia.com) and I have not yet discovered in what year but I think it was around the 1940's if anyone can answer my question it would be deeply appreciated. Question: When was the Cambodian National Anthem: Nokoreach written.

Dith Pran's work in Cambodia was significant for several reasons. As a reporter and photographer for the New York Times, Pran survived the brutal terror campaign of Pol Pot and the Khmer Rouge. Along with his mentor and best friend Sydney Schanberg, Pran helped to expose the atrocities of this regime in the movie "The Killing Fields". He also garnered worldwide recognition and aid for assisting thousands of children that were left without parents. Today, the plight of these refugees and their offspring continue to plague camps on the border of Cambodia and Thailand.

There are two different Cambodian Civil Wars. The more famous Cambodian Civil War was from 1968-1975. A second, less famous Cambodian Civil War of 1979-1999 followed. The intervening period of 1975-1979 was the period of Khmer Rouge rule of Cambodia during which Pol Pot's infamous genocide took place.

Cambodian Civil War of 1968-1975
The more famous Cambodian Civil War was from 1968-1975. During this period, the Kingdom of Cambodia was allied with the United States, Thailand, and South Vietnam in opposing the North Vietnamese in the Vietnam War. However, this conflicted with the needs and agenda of the North Vietnamese and the VietCong (South Vietnamese guerrillas who opposed the South Vietnamese government and sought unification with North Vietnam). Within Vietnam, the United States was relatively effective in preventing supply shipments from North Vietnam to the VietCong. As a result, the North Vietnamese and VietCong created supply trails that led through Laos and Cambodia. These were termed the "Ho Chi Minh Trails".

The Kingdom of Cambodia resisted this incursion of their territory by their enemies, which made the Ho Chi Minh trails perilous. In order to have protection from the Kingdom of Cambodia's forces, North Vietnam and the VietCong supported the weak Communist-aligned paramilitary called the Khmer Rouge by giving them an influx of money and funds. This resulted in the Khmer Rouge being able to become much more of a threat to the Kingdom and the Kingdom expanded its role to combat it.

Other international players exacerbated the fighting. The US participated in order to protect South Vietnam, prevent the rise of Communism in Cambodia, and to buy time for the withdrawal of US troops from Vietnam. Both North and South Vietnam also participated in the fighting. After five years of savage fighting, the Kingdom of Cambodia was overthrown on 17 April 1975 when the victorious Khmer Rouge proclaimed the establishment of Democratic Kampuchea. This would be the infamous regime headed by Pol Pot which was responsible for the genocide of between 1.5-2.2 million Cambodians.

Cambodian Civil War of 1979-1999
Pol Pot and the Khmer Rouge, in addition to the violence perpetrated against their own people, launched an offense into the now-unified Vietnam. For a few years, the Vietnamese (the former North Vietnamese government) tolerated it in recognition of their historic support for the Khmer Rouge in the previous Cambodian Civil War for nearly four years. However, in 1979, the Vietnamese government decided to retaliate by launching a full-scale invasion of Cambodia and overthrowing the Khmer Rouge. They replaced it with a Vietnamese puppet government called the People's Republic of Kampuchea. The Khmer Rouge joined two other paramilitaries, one of which was FUNCINPEC, made up of those loyal to the former Kingdom of Cambodia. These three paramilitaries (of which the Khmer Rouge was the strongest) became enemies of the regime and actively engaged in violence against the new PRK, forming the Coalition Government of Democratic Kampuchea. Even though the CGDK had assistance from the US, UK, and Thailand (all of which sought to limit Vietnamese influence in Southeast Asia), the PRK had control of most of the major population centers of Cambodia, penning the CGDK in the northwest area of the country, near Siem Reap and Battambang. Even though the war was, generally speaking, regionally contained, it continued for nearly 20 years before the UN-sponsored Paris Peace Agreement of 1991 ended the conflict and restored the Kingdom of Cambodia, while providing amnesty to most leaders from both the PRK and CGDK.

A serious and unfortunate consequence of this peace agreement is that most of the perpetrators of the Cambodian genocide later became part of the leadership of CGDK, making them immune to war crimes prosecution. To date, only one of the numerous aides and facilitators of the genocide has been subjected to an international tribunal.

He was monarchist, he may seem little communist.

After Khmer Empire fell, kingdom of Sukhothai(Thailand), and Kingdom of Laos rose.
