1. Events
January 801: The city of Indrapura on the Mekong River was temporarily controlled by the Srivijaya Empire in the early 8th century.
January 803: However author Michael Vickery asserts that these categories of Water and Land Chenla created by the Chinese are misleading and meaningless because the best evidence shows that until 802 AD, there was no single, great state in the land of ancient Cambodia, but a number of smaller ones. Individually, historians reject a classical decline scenario, arguing there was no Chenla to begin with, rather a geographic region had been subject to prolonged periods of contested rule, with turbulent successions and an obvious incapability to establish a lasting centre of gravity. Historiography discontinues this era of nameless upheaval only in the year 802, when Jayavarman II establishes the appropriately named Khmer Empire.
Disestablishment
January 851: The city of Indrapura on the Mekong River was temporarily controlled by the Srivijaya Empire in the early 8th century.
January 851: In 850, in southern Vietnam/Cambodia, the Khmer King Jayavarman II, founder of the Khmer Empire dynasty, broke away from the Srivijayan Empire's influence. This marked the beginning of the Khmer Empire's independence and rise to power in the region.
