The best characterization of the conflict in Cambodia is "an ideological conflict that became a genocide." This description reflects the complexities of the Cambodian Civil War, the rise of the Khmer Rouge, and the subsequent atrocities committed against the Cambodian population during their regime, which resulted in the deaths of millions.
