Cambodiaball

Cambodiaball or Kampucheaball is a small countryball in peninsular Southeast Asia. To west is Thailandball, east is  Vietnamball, north is  Laosball. He loves his Angkor Wat very much and remembers glory days of Khmer Empireball. Cambodiaball can into Theravada Buddhism.

(How many times does Cambodiaball have to say: Pol Pot is not of our traditional dish!)

He also loves his beer a lot. But he still drinks responsibly. He loves his precious Kampot pepper. Kampot pepper can into good cuisine. Cambodiaball's cuisine can into Cambodiaball delicacies.

History
At first there were only 1balls. But then these 1balls learned of Indian knowledge. Then Kingdom of Funanball was born. He lived a happy life and he had the earliest great economy in Southeast Asia. Funanball lived off trade and he was also very good at farming, something he has passed down to his descendants, his son Chenla and his distant descendant, modern day Cambodiaball.

When Funanball was weak and old, his son Chenlaball grew up and anschlussed Funanball. The rulers of Tangball made a history of Chenlaball.

Chenlaball died and his two children, Water Chenlaball (daughter) and Land Chenlaball (son) fought against each other and became very weak. Then a guy called Jayavarman II came along and united the two children. Thus Khmer Empireball was born. Khmer Empireball was only very young but it was stronk, very stronk. Under Jayavarman II, they kicked Javaballs out of their clay.

Khmer Empireball went on a rage (this behaviour would resurface in Khmer Rougeball) and anschlussed primitive 1balls and weak states around him. Angkor Wat was built and Khmer Empireball kept on anschlussing other kingdoms.

Then the Thaiballs and  Vietnamballs came and screwed everything up! (details censored due to sensitivity). Franceball also conquered them once because Cambodiaball asked for protection from Siamball. Franceball put him inside Indochinaball with Vietnamball and Laosball.

Cambodia was of communist until 1993 under "Pol Pot mode" and many Cambodiaballs died. Cambodiaball was once sick with Khmer Rougeball (a variety of the communist disease which is very contagious in poor countries) and made killings of many Cambodiaballs.

Today
Now Cambodia is developing. In fact, he has one of the best economic records in Southeast Asia. He loves tourism and visitors to Angkor Wat, it means monies for him.

Cambodiaball likes rice, it is very delicious, and can into feeding people. His cuisine is great. He can cook very good foods ( Franceball is often impressed). Cambodiaball is home to Kampotball, which produces world-class Kampot pepper. Also, has many delicacies such as frogs legs, snails and Cambodiaball's original invention: fried tarantula (Franceball: Honhonhon, mon fils, votre cuisine est exquise !) Also, fish is made into prahok using the power of Khmer cuisine (prahok is sort of like surströmming but better).

He is building lots of roads and can into upgraded transportation. He only has three airports, but is good for monies and tourism.

90 percent of citizens are Khmer. There are a few Vietnamballs,  Chinese Cambodiaballs and Chamballs. There are also descendants of ancient 1balls called Khmer Loeuballs. Sadly, they still cannot really into modern technology.

Cambodiaballs wear krama scarves. They like to celebrate Water Festival. Hopefully, can into space.

However, he still has problems. For example, crime and corruption are everywhere. It breaks his heart to see many Cambodiaballs in poverty.

How to draw
Drawing Cambodiaball is almost simple:

1. Divide the basic circle shape into three horizontal stripes of this blue, this red and this blue

2. Draw a white silhouette of the Angkor Wat in the red stripe

3. Draw the eyes and you have finished

Comics (please read before drawing comic)
Currently there aren't many comics involving him or ancestors. But from now on, please draw him wearing a either a conical hat (pls no) or the now rare traditional Cambodian palm hat. If possible, a running gag for Cambodiaball should be created. This running gag should focus mainly on Cambodia and his obsession with collecting 'tourist monies'.

Also, comics that feature Cambodia should also depict him drinking beer, but still remaining sober. (another running gag)
