Well it depends on which part of the middle ages you are looking at, if you are looking at the beginning, I would call it the dark ages due to the downfall of the Roman empire. If you are looking at the middle I would also call it the dark ages due to the famine and disease that were rampant. Its not toward the end of the middle ages we start seeing advances in culture start becoming more diverse. So in short I would call the middle ages the dark ages.

How was the conflict in Cambodia an example of a proxy war?

Colt1911 [192]

The United States supported forces fighting against Pol Pot and the Khmer Rouge, even though the United States wasn't directly involved in the conflict.

Option A

Explanation: 

Proxy wars can also have an enormous effect, particularly in the locality. However, thousands of unexploded bombs have been killing in the battle since the war had ended in Cambodia and Laos, not just in Vietnam.

Khmer Rouge, a socialist party headed by the Pol Pot who ruled Cambodia following its 1975 success in the Cambodian Civil War, committed the ethnic cleansing of Cambodia that killed between 1.5 and 2 million people, representing almost 25% of the Cambodian population.

It is claimed that, during the Cambodian-Vietnam War, the US The United States trained and equipped the Khmer Rouge directly to destroy Vietnam and the Ussr influence in Southeast Asia.

There's no reason to think that, even after 1979, when the Khmer Rouge was mostly ousted by Vietnam and governed a small part of the country, the United States encouraged the government of China to provide military training and support to the Khmer Rouges, and that America voted for a Khmer Rouge to continue the country's official member at UN.
