Scenarios about 'khmer rouge'
The Khmer Rouge was a radical communist regime that ruled Cambodia from 1975 to 1979, led by Pol Pot. During their brief but devastating rule, they implemented extreme agrarian reforms, evacuated cities, abolished money, and carried out the Cambodian genocide that killed an estimated 1.5 to 2 million people through executions, starvation, and forced labor. In alternate history scenarios, their regime often serves as a pivotal point for exploring different outcomes in Southeast Asian politics, Cold War interventions, or the development of communist ideologies.
