Questions: What is the difference between Imperialism and Colonisation? Brief information on
Cambodia
Summary:
- Imperialism is a concept, and colonisation is the action. So, colonisation is a type of
imperialism.
- In 1864, Cambodia became a French colony.
- France took over Vietnam and it affected Cambodia: Taxation, Policing, abolishing the
slavery system
- Until the world war II, Japan had colonized Cambodia and discharged the leader of
France.
Analysis and opinion: At first, I was genuinely confused as to how the two words differ, as
they are used interchangeably. It helped me to understand the meaning of the two words better.
The background information also helped me with seeing the big picture of Cambodias history.

Analysis and opinion: All of the solution have one thing in common: money. Even though the
solutions seem to not be solving the problem from the root, they are more immediate than
solving at the government level. It would take more than one generation to eradicate poverty
completely, or we might never completely solve poverty at all.
