While working as a teacher to support himself, Saloth Sar secretly worked in the Cambodian radical underground to foment opposition to the monarchy of King Sihanouk. In 1960, Saloth Sar, along with other Cambodian communists, formed the Cambodian Communist party. King Sihanouk later dubbed this group the “Khmer Rouge,” or Red Cambodians, a name which the party itself embraced. As a leader of this movement, Saloth Sar took the nom de guerre Pol Pot. In 1967, with Pol Pot firmly in charge of the organization, the Khmer Rouge began its military campaign against the Cambodian government, using guerrilla tactics developed and honed by Mao
