In 1975 the Khmer Rouge (KR), a communist rebel group, led by dictator Pol Pot,defeated the U.S. backed Lon Nol democratic regime. Cambodians were first happy that the corrupt Lon Nol government was overthrown, However, the KR soon began rebuilding Cambodia into a country like Mao's communist China, which threatened safety and rights of Cambodians. Fearing for their lives, the civilians of cities and towns were forced to relocate to the countryside where they would live in communities and work as slaves under horrible conditions. Whoever refused to leave their homes or didn't leave  quickly (including the sick and elderly) were killed.

The “Killing Fields” are filled of a lot graves with innocent Cambodians. Their bodies and clothes are all through the fields. This is their horrible resting place on earth. There was approximately  14,000 murdered, mangled, dirty bodies all around the fields.  The "Killing Fields" are now a "tourist attraction" and hopefully a tribute to the people who died during the Cambodian genocide.

The international community didn't take action during the course of the genocide. NATO countries didn't called attention to the genocides as they were happening. The US had just lost the war in Vietnam, which made the government deep in debt, popular disapproval, and the unwell to take part in the Cambodian Genocide. Even though their public stance against the genocide gradually strengthened, it did not make them take action. The international media remained silent about the genocide until the KR regime was overthrown. However, this still did not lead to an international investigation.
