Both the Nazis and the Khmer Rouge rose to power during times of political unrest and economic despair in their countries. Adolf Hitler and the Nazis gained support and power by blaming left-wing politicians, communists, and Jews for the defeat of Germany in World War I and the subsequent problems the country faced in the late 1920s and early 1930s. As the German economy improved under Nazi rule, Hitler and the Nazis gained more power.
The Khmer Rouge gained power during a similar time of struggle in Cambodia. Cambodians had battled French colonization for decades. In the early 1970s, while the Vietnam War raged on the Cambodian border, a military coup supported by the United States toppled the Cambodian government. A civil war soon began, and the Cambodian communist party, also known as the Khmer Rouge, became a major factor in the fighting. As the fighting continued, more Cambodians began supporting the Khmer Rouge, who soon gained control of the country by defeating those who had led the military coup.
