'''Pol Pot''' (born '''Saloth Sâr''', May 19<sup>th</sup>, 1925 – April 15<sup>th</sup>, 1998) was a Cambodian statesman and revolutionary who served as the Prime Minister of Cambodia (known as '''Democratic Kampuchea''' during that time period) from 1975 to 1979, during which he imposed a totalitarian [[dictatorship]] upon his country and essentially enslaved his entire country during his brief tenure. He achieved this by evacuating the entire population of Cambodia's cities to [[concentration camp]]s in the countryside, where his followers, known as the [[Khmer Rouge]], forced the people to work extremely hard labor. | '''Pol Pot''' (born '''Saloth Sâr''', May 19<sup>th</sup>, 1925 – April 15<sup>th</sup>, 1998) was a Cambodian statesman and revolutionary who served as the Prime Minister of Cambodia (known as '''Democratic Kampuchea''' during that time period) from 1975 to 1979, during which he imposed a totalitarian [[dictatorship]] upon his country and essentially enslaved his entire country during his brief tenure.
