When we think of the great civilizations in the world, the first ones that come to mind are Egyptian, Inca, Greek, and Roman civilizations. Not many people think of the Khmer Empire or are aware of how great it was. The Khmer Empire was the greatest player in the political and cultural world of medieval Southeast Asia. Its capital city and greatest legacy, Angkor, was built in such a way that one side was protected by the Tonle Sap Lake and the other three sides by the wild jungle. Its surroundings were hostile, but they offered protection. A series of well-built highways connected the city with other important settlements and port cities, which the Khmer used for trade. The Khmer Empire embraced Hinduism, and it produced the monument temples that still stand today.

Angkor wat has always intrigued me. Thank you so very much for this information.
Fascinating. There is so much to more to unravel. Looking forward to it. 😲
Can you make video about Majapahit Empire?
Odd connection, but I first learned about this in the 1990's in a game with a time-traveling character. The game was called "Illusion of Gaia."
You should do a vid on Khajuraho, India. The ancient temples there are pornographic! it used to be the ancient capital of India until the Muslims invaded and Indians up and fled to what is now modern day New Delhi. Check the temples out! The meaning behind them is so fascinating (sexy naughty to us Westerners) and meaningful, spiritual.
I think you mean "Wat was its purpose?"
Whatever it was, it's probably safe to assume it wasn't built in Angkor...it was built in Cambodia. Dad joke much? Lol
😂😂😂😂
India culture.
No where in India can you find any temples that can challenge Cambodia.
Angkor Wat is a Hindu-Buddhist temple. Buddhism was exterminated over 800 years ago in India by Hindu fundamentalist.
Angkor Wat, is now considered the eighth Wonder of the World. No ranking for Indian temples.
Khom-Siam-Viraman builted Ankor Civilization 💚🇹🇭...
Trasak Praem แตงหวาน ត្រសក់ផ្អែម abandoned Ankor and builted Khmer (not Khom). Khmer-Rouge + Polpot + French built modern Cambodia-Khmer'.
Every day, I feel boring to some Thai people, really headache.
Thai people stop spreading false information Khom not Thai
Khom=Khmer
There is K in Thai there no K Siam
Get it through your head
Khmer ancestor built temple
Siam adapt Khmer alphabet & numbers in 13 century until now.
I thought Siam people came from Sip Song Ban Na in Yunnan, China. What were they doing in Cambodia back then LOL 😂😂😂
Siam as labors.
