Preah Vihear Temple
Preah Vihear Temple ( Khmer: ប្រាសាទព្រះវិហារ ''Prasat Preah Vihear'') is an ancient Khmer temple built during the period of the Khmer Empire, that is situated on the top of a cliff in the Dângrêk Mountains, in the Preah Vihear province, Cambodia. In 1962, following a lengthy dispute between Cambodia and Thailand over ownership, the International Court of Justice (ICJ) in The Hague ruled that the temple is in Cambodia. Affording a view for many kilometers across a plain, Prasat Preah Vihear has the most spectacular setting of all the temples built during the six-century-long Khmer Empire. As a key edifice of the empire's spiritual life, it was supported and modified by successive kings and so bears elements of several architectural styles.

The temple gives its n ...

Anti-Thai Sentiment
Anti-Thai sentiment involves hostility or hatred that is directed towards people in Thailand (usually referring to Thai Chinese and Siamese), or the state of Thailand. Incidents by country Cambodia The hatred toward Thais in Cambodia has existed since the late Khmer Empire. Siamese forces under the Ayutthaya Kingdom has invaded the Khmer Empire many times and Siam has historically occupied Cambodia.

This deliberate construct aims to conceal Thailand's extensive adoption of Khmer culture by acknowledging the contributions of the non-existent Khoms, constituting a form of historical negationism. Thailand's historical ties to the Khmer Empire, whose influence encompassed language, culture, and governance, are obscured by this narrative. The so-called Khom, pr ...
