<h3>Did you know about Cambodia?</h3> Cambodia is located in the southern part of the Indochina Peninsula. The area that is present-day Cambodia came under Khmer rule around the year 600 AD, when the region was at the centre of a vast empire that stretched over most of Southeast Asia. Under the Khmers, a magnificent temple complex was constructed at Angkor. This beautiful, fertile land has beenthe scene of many conflicts, and this legacy has left it a poor country. Angkor Wat, in Siem Reap, Cambodia, is the largest religious templein the world.

Background: | Most Cambodians consider themselves to be Khmers , descendants of the Angkor Empire that extended over much of Southeast Asia and reached its zenith between the 10th and 13th centuries. Attacks by the Thai and Cham (from present-day Vietnam) weakened the empire , ushering in a long period of decline. The king placed the country under French protection in 1863 and it became part of French Indochina in 1887. Following Japanese occupation in World War II , Cambodia gained full independence from France in 1953. In April 1975 , after a five-year struggle , Communist Khmer Rouge forces captured Phnom Penh and evacuated all cities and towns. At least 1.5 million Cambodians died from execution , forced hardships , or starvation during the Khmer Rouge regime under POL POT. A December 1978 Vietnamese invasion drove the Khmer Rouge into the countryside , began a 10-year Vietnamese occupation , and touched off almost 13 years of civil war. The 1991 Paris Peace Accords mandated democratic elections and a ceasefire , which was not fully respected by the Khmer Rouge. UN-sponsored elections in 1993 helped restore some semblance of normalcy under a coalition government. Factional fighting in 1997 ended the first coalition government , but a second round of national elections in 1998 led to the formation of another coalition government and renewed political stability. The remaining elements of the Khmer Rouge surrendered in early 1999. Some of the remaining Khmer Rouge leaders are awaiting trial by a UN-sponsored tribunal for crimes against humanity. Elections in July 2003 were relatively peaceful , but it took one year of negotiations between contending political parties before a coalition government was formed. In October 2004 , King SIHANOUK abdicated the throne due to illness and his son , Prince Norodom SIHAMONI , was selected to succeed him. Local elections were held in Cambodia in April 2007 , and there was little in the way of pre-election violence that preceded prior elections. National elections are scheduled for July 2008. |
