The '''Khmer Rouge''' was the name given to the followers of the Communist Party of Kampuchea in Cambodia. It was formed in 1968 as an offshoot of the Vietnam People's Army from North Vietnam. It was the ruling party in Cambodia from 1975 to 1979, led by [[Pol Pot]], [[Nuon Chea]], [[Ieng Sary]], [[Son Sen]], and [[Khieu Samphan]]. Democratic Kampuchea was the name of the state as controlled by the government of the Khmer Rouge from 1975 to 1979. | |||
The organization orchestrated the [[Cambodian Genocide]], in which many people were expelled out of the cities into rural labor camps. There, they were forced into hard physical work, with torture and executions being frequent. The regime opposed intellectualism as well, and educated people were also sent to "killing fields" where they were brutally murdered with pickaxes. The ban on education also lead to a lack of doctors, which caused disease to escalate, and the unhealthy living conditions of farmers also lead to mass starvation. This culminated in roughly 2 million dying as a result of the Khmer Rouge. | The organization orchestrated the [[Cambodian Genocide]], in which many people were expelled out of the cities into rural labor camps.
