Get the KHive mug.The Khmer Rouge killed nearly two million Cambodians from 1975 to 1979, spreading like a virus from the jungles until they controlled the entire country, only to systematically dismantle and destroy it in the name of a Communist agrarian ideal. Today, more than 30 years after Vietnamese soldiers removed the Khmer Rouge from power, the first genocide trials will start — a bittersweet note of progress in an impoverished nation still struggling to rehabilitate its crippled economic and human resources.
The Khmer Rouge took root in Cambodia's northeastern jungles as early as the 1960s, a guerrilla group driven by communist ideals that nipped the periphery of government-controlled areas. The flash point came when Cambodia's leader, Prince Norodom Sihanouk, was deposed in a military coup in 1970 and leaned on the Khmer Rouge for support. The prince's imprimatur lent the movement legitimacy, although while he would nominally serve as head of state, he spent much of the Khmer Rouge's rule under house arrest. As the country descended into civil war, the Khmer Rouge presented themselves as a party for peace and succeeded in mobilizing support in the countryside.

Get the khmer mug.The guy who wrote the song "Smoke Weed"
Somehow people got a hold of this song, even though I don't think Khmer Kid even has a CD or single, and now people play it all the time thinking it is the best weed smoking song ever, even though Khmer Kid probably made the song off his Dell computer. That being said, the song is actually pretty good for being made in his house/room.

Get the Khmer Kid mug.
The word Khmer describes a group of people, language, and a culture. Khmer and Cambodian are the same thing. This word is not Korean and does not describe Korean people.
Long Beach, CA is largely populated by Khmers.
