The good, the bad and the ugly is a simple way to sum up Cambodian history. Things were good in the early years, culminating in the vast Angkor empire, unrivaled in the region during four centuries of dominance. Then the bad set in, from the 13th century, as ascendant neighbors steadily chipped away at Cambodian territory. In the 20th century, it turned downright ugly, as a brutal civil war culminated in the genocidal rule of the Khmer Rouge (1975รข€"79), from which Cambodia is still recovering.
By the beginning of the 1st-century ad, Chinese traders began to report the existence of inland and coastal kingdoms in Cambodia. These kingdoms already owed much to Indian culture, which provided alphabets, art forms, architectural styles, religions (Hinduism and Buddhism), and a stratified class system. Local beliefs that stressed the importance of ancestral spirits coexisted with the Indian religions and remain powerful today.
Angkor is now the most popular pronunciation rather than the original Norkor. The word Wat means temple. Over the years, the number of towers shown on the temple has changed from five towers to three towers.
The red and blue hues are customary shades of the ninth century Khmer Empire. The blue shade of the banner appears to encompass the entire and was intended to symbolize the Royalty of Cambodia. Red speaks of the Nation and the white is the Religion, which is basically Buddhism. The banner with these three hues was initially embraced in 1948.
It kept on being the national banner until 1970. With the re-foundation of the government, it again turned into the national banner in 1993.The banner is at times appeared as a vertical pennant. The vertical sides of the standard have a limited blue stripe. This might be to permit space for the bigger Angkor Wat sanctuary. The red standard in the inside involves a great deal a greater amount of the flat space. The white Angkor Wat sanctuary is amidst the pennant.
Cambodia has a roundel emblem that converts the temple imagery from the flag into a solid white temple placed in the middle of a red circle. The red disk is then encircled by a border of blue. The Flag Company Inc specialized in flag designs offered a special edition of decals and flags to memorize the history of Cambodian Flag for the future.
