The Cambodian genocide, which occurred between 1975 and 1979, was primarily perpetrated by the Khmer Rouge regime under the leadership of Pol Pot. While the genocide itself was a domestic atrocity, it was influenced by the geopolitical context of the time, including the involvement of neighboring countries such as Vietnam, which later invaded Cambodia in 1978 to overthrow the Khmer Rouge. Additionally, the United States played a role in the events leading up to the genocide through its bombing campaigns in Cambodia during the Vietnam War. Other countries, such as China, provided support to the Khmer Rouge during its rule.
