[PAR] [TLE] Cambodian genocide [SEP] The Cambodian genocide (Khmer: របបប្រល័យពូជសាសន៍ ) was carried out by the Khmer Rouge (KR) regime led by Pol Pot between 1975 and 1979 in which an estimated 1.5 to 3 million people died.  The Cambodian Civil War resulted in the establishment of Democratic Kampuchea by the Khmer Rouge, who had planned to create a form of agrarian socialism founded on the ideals of Stalinism and Maoism.  The subsequent policies caused forced relocation of the population from urban centers, torture, mass executions, use of forced labor, malnutrition, and disease which led to the deaths of an estimated 25 percent of the total population (around 2 million people).  The genocide ended in 1979 following the Vietnamese invasion of Cambodia.  As of 2009, 23,745 mass graves have been discovered. [PAR] [TLE] Khmer Rouge [SEP] The Khmer Rouge ( , ] , "Red Khmers"; Khmer: ខ្មែរក្រហម "Khmer Kror-Horm") was the name given to the followers of the Communist Party of Kampuchea in Cambodia.  It was formed in 1968 as an offshoot of the Vietnam People's Army from North Vietnam, and allied with North Vietnam, the Viet Cong, and the Pathet Lao during the Vietnam War against the anti-communist forces from 1968 to 1975.  The Khmer Rouge emerged victorious in the Cambodian Civil War, overthrew the military dictatorship of the Khmer Republic and installed their own government Democratic Kampuchea in 1975, led by Pol Pot, Nuon Chea, Ieng Sary, Son Sen, and Khieu Samphan.  This was followed by the Cambodian genocide which occurred from 1975 until 1979, when the Khmer Rouge was finally removed from power by Vietnam in the Cambodian–Vietnamese War.  The military power of the Khmer Rouge organization was not broken however, and a long era of guerrilla warfare involving large swaths of the Cambodian countryside began.  Many different military factions were involved in the guerrilla war era and it ended around 1994.
