Asian countries

Asia is, by convention, one of the world's seven continents. Comprising the Eastern landmass of Eurasia, Asia is generally divided from Europe by the watershed divides of the Ural and Caucasus Mountains, the Ural River, the Caspian and Black Seas, and the waterways connecting the Black and Aegean Seas. It was split into South Asia, Southeast Asia, and East Asia.

Described below are some example countries falling even partially under any of the various common definitions of Asia, geographical or political.

Cambodia
Cambodia (Khmer: ព្រះរាជាណាចក្រកម្ពុជា, "Kampuchea"), formally known as the Kingdom of Cambodia and formerly known as the Khmer Empire, was a country within the Southeast region of Asia located at the southern portion of the Indochina Peninsula, bordering Thailand from the northwest, Laos to the northeast, Vietnam to the east, and the Gulf of Thailand to the southwest. Some of its cuisines included amok and pong tea khon (sometimes known as balut), which were fish covered in coconut milk and other flavorings and wrapped with banana leaves, and a boiled fertilized duck's egg, respectively.

Around the time of the Cold War, the Chinese backed several Communist groups. During the late 1970s, the country was subject to a hostile takeover of an off-shoot of the North Vietnamese Army called the Khmer Rouge, led by Pol Pot, which led to a three-year genocidal campaign to ensure a Marxian communist agrarian society. By the time the Khmer Rouge were driven out by 1979, a third of the population had been exterminated, with the name "Killing Fields" being adopted to various mass murder sites. One of the survivors and victims of the regime was Monsoon.

At some point later, Cambodia also ended up gaining some organized crime syndicates on its doorstep. Monsoon would later act as a member of one of these gangs before joining Desperado Enforcement LLC.
