'''Democide''' is a term created by political scientist R. J. Rummel<ref>[http://www.gse.harvard.edu/~t656_web/peace/Articles_Spring_2004/Plourde_Shawn_Democide.htm]</ref> in order to create a broader concept than the legal definition of [[genocide]]. Genocide, for example, does not take into account government murder for political or ideological reasons. It is defined as large-scale murder by a government, similar to a genocide or ethnic cleansing. The twentieth century has seen massive democides, including the [[Armenian genocide]], [[Holodomor]], [[Holocaust]], [[Great Leap Forward]] and [[Killing Fields|Camodian genocide]].
