Administrative Divisions Of Cambodia
Administrative divisions of Cambodia have several levels. Cambodia is divided into 24 provinces (''Khaet''; km, ខេត្ត, ) and the special administrative unit Phnom Penh. Though a different administrative unit, Phnom Penh is at province level, so ''de facto'' Cambodia has 25 provinces and municipalities. Each province is divided into districts (''Srok''/''Khan''; , /) - there are 159 districts throughout the country’s provinces, and 12 are in Phnom Penh. Each province has one capital district (changed to " city/town", ''krong''; , ), e.g. for Siem Reap, it's ''Srok Siem Reap''. The exceptions are the provinces of Banteay Meanchey, Kandal, Mondulkiri, Oddar Meanchey, Preah Vihear and Ratanakiri, where the province and the capital district does not match. A district of a province, which is called ''Srok'' (, ), is divided into "communes" (''khum''; , ). A commune is further divided into "villages" (, ). In Phnom Penh the districts are called ''khan'' (, ), and ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Krom River
Krom River or Kromme River ( af, Krommerivier) is a river in the Eastern Cape Province in South Africa. The river flows into the Indian Ocean through an estuary on the north side of St Francis Bay, west of Port Elizabeth. The Krom river flows in an ESE direction and is approximately 109 km long with a catchment area of 1,085 km. The Churchill Dam and the Impofu Dam are dams on the Krom River. The latter is located near Humansdorp. Presently this river is part of the Fish to Tsitsikama Water Management Area.

Until then it had been thought that its distribution was restricted to the area between the Keurbooms and the Olifants River. Although in South Africa this relatively delicate fish is only classified as near threatened, in Australia species of the same genus were driven to extinction by competing ...

Kampuchea Krom
Kampouchea Krom ( km, កម្ពុជាក្រោម, ; "Lower Cambodia") is the region variously known as Southern Vietnam, Nam Bo, and the former French Cochinchina. Bordering present-day Cambodia, the region is positioned in Cambodian nationalist mythology as a "once-integral part of the Khmer kingdom that was colonised by France as Cochinchina in the mid-nineteenth century, then was ceded to Vietnam in June 1949". In the present day, the region roughly corresponds to the Mekong Delta region of Vietnam. Kampouchea Krom continues to be home to many ethnic Khmer Krom, with some Khmer estimating their numbers to be between seven million and over ten million. The Khmer term "Kampuchea Krom" can be translated as "Lower Cambodia". An alternative name for the region is "Kampuchea Lech Tuek" ( ), which roughly corresponds to "Flooded Cambodia". Territorial history In a Khmer Buddhist monk's vision, the Khmer have inhabited the land of Kampuchea Krom since it first emerged f ...
