	Khmer Rouge - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Indochinese Communist Party was founded in 1931, and a separate Cambodian Communist Party was founded in 1951, although later the Khmer Rouge leader, Pol Pot, insisted that the party was founded in 1960.
		In the 1970s the Party became known as the Communist Party of Kampuchea (CPK) and in the 1980s and 1990s as the Party of Democratic Kampuchea, but it became commonly known by the French name Khmer Rouge, a name originally given by Norodom Sihanouk in the 1950s.
		The U.S. and other Western governments, along with China, voted in the UN to continue to recognize "Democratic Kampuchea" as the legitimate government of Cambodia, in order to signal their disapproval of the Vietnamese occupation and installation of the People's Republic of Kampuchea, which was also backed by the Soviet Union.

	What Went Wrong with the Pol Pot Regime (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		The CPK was born and developed in conflict with the Communist Party of Vietnam (formerly known as the Workers Party of Vietnam), which sought to strategically subordinate the Cambodian revolution to the Vietnamese struggle against imperialism.
		Lastly, the CPK needed to develop a critique of the political, ideological and military line of the Vietnamese Party, whose bearings were never firm and which had been increasingly drawn into the political and ideological orbit of the USSR.
		The Vietnamese Party clearly had more confidence in Sihanouk than they did in the Cambodian communists, in terms of the way the VWP tended to see things, which was in relation to their own immediate war aims.

		However in the 1970s the name came to be identified with the Communist Party of Kampuchea (CPK), known during the 1980s and 1990s as the "Party of Democratic Kampuchea." They became infamous for their role in the genocide of between 900,000 and 2 million Cambodians under the leadership of Pol Pot.
		Until the mid-1990s the leadership of the CPK was largely unchanged since the 1960s.
		Unlike other communist regimes, there was no cult of personality, and the leaders of the Khmer Rouge maintained a low, almost anonymous profile.

	Kampuchea Briefing (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		A new constitution in January 1976 established Democratic Kampuchea as a communist "people's republic", and a 250-member "Assembly of the Representatives of the People of Kampuchea" (PRA) was selected in March to choose the collective leadership of a State Presidium, the chairman of which became the head of state.
		While communist, the CPK was fiercely anti-Vietnamese, and most of its members who had lived in Vietnam were purged.
		It was composed of Khmer communists who had remained in Vietnam after 1975 and Khmer Rouge officials from the eastern sector-like Heng Samrin and Hun Sen-who had fled to Vietnam from Cambodia in 1978.

		On April 17, 1975, a bitter five-year civil war was concluded with the Party Center leading the Khmer Rouge to victory over the US-backed Khmer Republic of General Lon Nol.
		One of the conceits of the Khmer Rouge Party Center was that Democratic Kampuchea was capable of seizing through military conquest regions of present-day Vietnam which were lost to Cambodian control through Vietnamese expansion over the last five hundred years.
		Today, however, some seventeen years and three Cambodian regimes later, the "National Army of Democratic Kampuchea," as the Khmer Rouge military is known, continues to wage warfare from jungle redouts in an attempt to regain control of Cambodia and resume their utopian experiment.
