You mean, you have not seen anything about Rwanda, Cambodia, and plenty of other examples of brutal mass killings to keep the population in fear and in control?

It is hard to believe that you have not, even in those countries you list there has been plenty of recent stories about their governments rounding up their citizens and just execute them...:|

Funny you mention Cambodia... I believe it was in
November of 1994 the UN had supervised elections there... almost like whats going on in Afghanistan,
but yet, you tell me they have mass killings and
executions to keep the inhabitants in fear... Is this
right? mindblowing.... Are you sure cambodia???
somehow I realllllly don't think so. At least, I realllly
hope not, See'ing as how we don't do busniess with
people like these..... or do we???

Well, genocide seems to be a big motivator in some of those countries -- you know, let's do the world a favor and get rid of those people.

Oh man, if you come to SC without even doing a simple research, or have not really much idea of what you are talking about, I would suggest at least to do a modest search.

Let me make clear that this is not an intent to flame you, but really surprised that you have no clue as to what happened in those 2 places I mentioned, despite the fact that is easily searched in the web. Perhaps is your young age, but you can do a simple research for pol pot, or the Cambodia Killing fields, where aprox. 2 Mil people were brutally murdered, and most population was sent to death/slave camps back in the 70's.

For Rwanda, just check for Juvenal Habyarimana, Hutu or Tutsi groups.

History is not just 10 years past you know?

ok, well... thanks for the tips. As far as my knowledge...
true I don't know everything but I am well aware of the
20 years of war bred in that state producing the "killing
fields"...

however... this is not what my thread is about, I'm trying
to find the significance of the independant states listed
above.

I also would like to apologize for my sarcasm, it really
was uncalled for... What happened in Cambodia was tragic and brutal. I didn't mean anything by it. Im sorry

I'm not expecting you to know everything, but here I go trying to explain you the indeed mass genocides, and murder are used by some regimes to keep the population under control and has been done througout the ages, yet you seem surprised.

The other issue is that no one here is sure on what are you asking here for? Are you doing a research, know something you want to share or simply just posting nothing of any importance to you?

I am doing a study actually... was hoping to get input
from some of the SC peeps, Im not fully clear on an
answer yet. But the list above holds a significance, and
I want to know what it is. Just don't be suprised if
some of the names on the list end up being thrown
around the media in the upcoming years.

Edited for Correction due to answer posted.

In that case you need to be more specific, as to what type of study you are doing, subject, material you are searching. A bunch of names and not knowing any particulars makes up for a guessing game.
