Central Case Examination Group: The Central Case Examination Group (; CCEG) was a special organization established in the People's Republic of China in 1966 under the aegis of the Politburo Standing Committee to persecute those accused of "anti-party activities".  It was, in essence, an organization dedicated to political persecution of senior party leaders as well as ordinary functionaries.  Initially conceptualized as a beachhead by Chairman Mao Zedong's most radical supporters to 'gather dirt' on opponents of the Cultural Revolution, it later began taking up cases against all manner of perceived political opponents irrespective of their ideological allegiance.  Ironically, many of its early leaders, such as Jiang Qing, later themselves became the subject of persecution by the Group.  The Group was compared by Cultural Revolution-era propagandist Wang Li to the Soviet Cheka, but he noted that the CCEG had even broader powers.  Its leading members included nearly all of the members of the Cultural Revolution Group (CRG) as well as Premier Zhou Enlai and the chief of Mao's security detail Wang Dongxing.  The CCEG worked closely with the CRG during its investigations.

Mao Zedong: Mao Zedong or Mao Tse-tung ( ; December 26, 1893September 9, 1976), also known as Chairman Mao, was a Chinese communist revolutionary, poet, political theorist and founding father of the People's Republic of China, which he governed as the Chairman of the Communist Party of China from its establishment in 1949 until his death in 1976.

Dial H-I-S-T-O-R-Y: Dial H-I-S-T-O-R-Y, a 68-minute-long film by director Johan Grimonprez, traces the history of airplane hijacking as portrayed by mainstream television media.  The film premiered in 1997 at the Musée National d'Art Moderne (Centre Georges Pompidou (Paris); and at Catherine David's curated Documenta X(Kassel).  "This study in pre-Sept.  11 terrorism" is composed of archival footage material — interspersing reportage shots, clips from science fiction films, found footage, home video and reconstituted scenes.  The work is interspersed with passages from Don DeLillo's novels "Mao II" and "White Noise", "providing a literary and philosophic anchor to the film".  According to the director, "Dial H-I-S-T-O-R-Y's narrative is based on an imagined dialogue between a terrorist and a novelist where the writer contends that the terrorist has hijacked his role within society."  The film's opening line, taken from "Mao II", introduces the skyjacker as protagonist.  Interspersing fact and fiction, Grimonprez said that the use of archival footage to create "short-circuits in order to critique a situation" may be understood as a form of a Situationist Détournement.

Narathu of Pinya: Narathu of Pinya (Burmese: မောပါ နရသူ , ] ; also known as Thihathura; 1333–1364?)  was king of Pinya from 1359 to 1364.  He controlled only around the capital region, and unsuccessfully tried to stop the Mong Mao (Maw) Shan raids of Central Myanmar (Burma) that began in 1359.  He reversed his predecessor Kyawswa II's policy of alliance with Sagaing, and later entered into an alliance with Mong Mao as a junior partner to dismember Sagaing.  But the policy backfired when Mong Mao forces proceeded to sack Pinya in May 1364.  He was brought back to the Shan country, and is remembered as Maw-Pa Min (မောပါမင်း , "the King who was brought to the Maw land").

History of the People's Republic of China: The history of the People's Republic of China details the history of mainland China since October 1, 1949, when, after a near complete victory by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) in the Chinese Civil War, Mao Zedong proclaimed the People's Republic of China (PRC) from atop Tiananmen.  The PRC has for several decades been synonymous with China, but it is only the most recent political entity to govern mainland China, preceded by the Republic of China (ROC) and thousands of years of imperial dynasties.

Rule of law: The rule of law is the legal principle that law should govern a nation, as opposed to being governed by decisions of individual government officials.  It primarily refers to the influence and authority of law within society, particularly as a constraint upon behaviour, including behaviour of government officials.  The phrase can be traced back to 16th century Britain, and in the following century the Scottish theologian Samuel Rutherford used the phrase in his argument against the divine right of kings.  John Locke wrote that freedom in society means being subject only to laws made by a legislature that apply to everyone, with a person being otherwise free from both governmental and private restrictions upon liberty.  The rule of law was further popularized in the 19th century by British jurist A. V. Dicey.  The concept, if not the phrase, was familiar to ancient philosophers such as Aristotle, who wrote "Law should govern".

Lei Feng: Léi Fēng (18 December 1940 – 15 August 1962) was a soldier in the People's Liberation Army and is a communist legend in China.  After his death, Lei was characterized as a selfless and modest person devoted to the Communist Party, Mao Zedong, and the people of China.  In 1963, he became the subject of a nationwide posthumous propaganda campaign, "Follow the examples of Comrade Lei Feng."  Lei was portrayed as a model citizen, and the masses were encouraged to emulate his selflessness, modesty, and devotion to Mao.  After Mao's death, Lei Feng remained a cultural icon representing earnestness and service.  His name entered daily speech and his imagery appeared on T-shirts and memorabilia.

Rome II Regulation: The Rome II Regulation (EC) No 864/2007 is a European Union Regulation regarding the conflict of laws on the law applicable to non-contractual obligations.  From 11 January 2009, the Rome II Regulation creates a harmonised set of rules within the European Union to govern choice of law in civil and commercial matters (subject to certain exclusions) concerning non-contractual obligations, including specific rules for tort/delict and specific categories of tort/delict, unjust enrichment, "negotiorum gestio" and "culpa in contrahendo".  Additionally, in certain circumstances and subject to certain conditions, the parties may choose the law applicable to a non-contractual obligation.  Analogous rules were established for contractual obligations by the Rome Convention of 1980.  The Rome Convention has, in turn, been replaced by the Rome I Regulation on the law applicable to contractual obligations (Reg.  (EC) No. 593/2008).  The regulation applies to all EU member states except Denmark.

She is venerated mainly is in the coastal provinces of the country, especially along the road from Phnom Penh to the sea port of Sihanoukville, as well as in Kampot and Kep.  At the Bokor Mountain in Kampot there is a 29 meters tall monument to Yeay Mao inaugurated in 2012, while there is a young version of Yeay Mao in the Kep Beach called "Beautiful Lady" (ស្រីស្អាត) or "Sela waits for her husband" (សិលាចាំប្តី), but that belongs to the legend of Mao looking to the west for her lost husband.  She is considered the protector of travelers and hunters.  Drivers still stop at her shrine along National Road 4 near Phnom Pech Nil to pay their respects and wash their cars with water from the stream nearby, as well as the monument at Bokor.
