In August 1945, after the Japanese surrender in WWII, the Viet Minh under Ho Chi Minh declared Vietnamese independence and established control over much of the country, marking the start of the revolution. However, Vietnam was soon divided and the French sought to reassert control, leading to further revolutionary struggle.
The Cambodian Genocide occurred from 1975-1979 when the Khmer Rouge led by Pol Pot took control of Cambodia and attempted to transform it into an agrarian socialist society. They forcibly evacuated cities and forced the population to work on collective farms, resulting in mass starvation, disease, and executions that killed an estimated 1.4-2.2 million Cambodians, around 20-30% of the population.
