Which continent includes Cambodia?

Cambodia is in Asia, specifically mainland Southeast Asia.

The country occupies the southern part of the Indochinese Peninsula. It shares land borders with Thailand to the northwest, Laos to the north, and Vietnam to the east and southeast. Its southwestern coast meets the Gulf of Thailand, part of the western Pacific Ocean.

Cambodia is closely associated with the Mekong River and Tonlé Sap, Southeast Asia’s largest freshwater lake. The Khmer Empire, centered at Angkor, once controlled much of the region; Angkor Wat remains Cambodia’s best-known landmark.

A common mix-up is confusing Cambodia with an island nation or placing it in South Asia. Cambodia is on the Asian mainland, alongside its mainland neighbors Thailand, Laos, and Vietnam.
