How long did it take to build the angkor what temple?

Since the 12th Century. (Did you know that the Khmer language contains the longest alphabet in the world according to the Guinness Book of Record?) It was built by the Khmers (also known in English as the Cambodians) during the Khmer Empire when the Khmers controlled present day Cambodia, Loas, Thailand, Malaysia, and Vietnam. The word Cambodia is an anglosization/English variation of the French's naming of the country as Cambodge. The Khmers don't and have never referred their country as Cambodia rather they have correctly called it Kampuchea or Srok Khmer (meaning land of the Khmer). Just as the English speakers called land of the Thai as Thailand. If you look carefully and study Khmer history, you can tell that the Chinese's incursion, migration, and invasion of the Khmer Empire have resulted in new countries, like Thailand (which was called Siam), Loas, and Viet Nam. Many of them have ethnic Chinese features. Khmers do not have Chinese features. The Khmer people who have dominated Southeast Asia through it's cultural genius and scientific wonders-- thanks to its water engineering at Angkor Watt was able to survived from Chinese excursion and have preserved its culture, including Angkor Watt. The Khmer Empire was the longest empire of all Asia, longer than any Chinese dynasties, or the Mongolian empire. Sadly, nobody knows this scholarly truth because the Communist Party killed most of the Khmers scholars during the Khmer genocide and along with their deaths, countless books were either lost or burned. Also, there was once a library at Angkor Watt. The Khmer kings always had scribes. Perhaps someday we will find scribes or records about the scribes.

Why did Japan invade Cambodia?

Answer 1the truth is recently, Cambodia first started fire to Thai border, injured Thai people and damaged Thai school because of Cambodia want to grab the land of Thailand which is good economic location. Cambodia gives unactual messages to international media, mostly base in Cambodia. Many times those wrong news cause hate among cambodian and they did violende to Thais who work in Cambodia. Cambodia want to use the land at thai's sisaket province which is location of phra viharn for business while promoting world heritage site. But the land around that prasat belong to Thailand since long time ago. Angkor was a part of Thailand in siamrat or siamnakhon province, it was abandoned by Khmer which had inner-fighting at that time. Later, French indochina which has big army colonized it together with Cambodia. Nowadays, Cambodia spreadout unactual/ bias message and lie to us, with their nationalism. They injured Thai people which need peace. Actually, Thai government always use peace way but Cambodia started war again and again because of their plan to grab the land. Talking about race. There are many ancient Khmer-race which became today Thai people in Thailand. and there are plenty of Thai-race (or Siam) which today become cambodian in Cambodia especially in Siamrat or Siam nakhon, which later the name was changed to siamreap after french colonization. Now Cambodia use Phra Viharn or Phra Vihear temple as army base to beat Thailand. Cambodian arms, guns, and soldiers are killing Thai people from there. It is a shame of Cambodia on this unacceptable world heritage site.Answer 2After Khmer Empire fell apart in the 14th century, Thailand rose and attacked Cambodia from the west. Vietnam attacked from the east. In 21st century, Cambodia being invaded again by Thailand after Cambodia included a historical site into World Heritage. This site used to be a dispute between Thailand and Cambodia, but the UN gave authority to Cambodia in 1950s. Thailand sent troops to protect the historical site which is owned by Cambodia. Fight clashed, but don't know exactly who started. This count as invasion since Cambodians didn't start the dispute.
