The
Kingdom of Cambodia
(
Khmer
:
transliterated:
Preăh Réachéanachâkr Kâmpŭchea
) is a country in
Southeast Asia
with a population of almost 15 million people, with
Phnom Penh
being the capital city. Cambodia is the
successor state
of the once powerful
Hindu
and
Buddhist
Khmer Empire
, which ruled most of the
Indochinese Peninsula
between the eleventh and fourteenth centuries.
A citizen of Cambodia is usually identified as “Cambodian” or “Khmer”, which strictly refers to
ethnic Khmers
. Most Cambodians are
Theravada Buddhists
of Khmer extraction, but the country also has a substantial number of predominantly
Muslim
Cham
, as well as ethnic Chinese, Vietnamese and small
animist
hill tribes.
