Genocide is the systmatic killing of a racial or cultral group. Pol Pot and the Kmer Rouge did this to the country of cambodia. This was going on when we were fighting the Vietnam war. When Vietnam went into cambodia we did too. That's when protests shot up around the country. Genocide had happened before but Pol Pot's genocide was on the very worst along with the Holocaust, Japan invasion of China later known as Rape of Nanking, ad Joseph Stalin's concetration camp up by the Artictic circle in the Soviet Union. Pol Pot was a very power hungry person, he was introduced to communism at a young age, he became a full on communist in Paris. The Vietnam war litteraly split the country in two, some people though the war great, some people were neutral, and some people hated it let be known too all by protesting everywhere.
