About Cambodia

Cambodia is a Southeast Asian kingdom built around the Mekong and the Tonle Sap, with Phnom Penh as its capital. Its Khmer Empire raised Angkor Wat before centuries of decline, French protection from 1863 and independence in 1953. The Khmer Rouge genocide of 1975 to 1979 still shadows the country, which is now dominated by the Cambodian People's Party.
