The House of Norodom is the ruling royal house of Cambodia. It was founded in 1860 by King Norodom I, a son of the "Great-King", Ang Duong. The current head of the House of Norodom is the current king of Cambodia, Norodom Sihamoni. Norodom is one of only two royal houses of Cambodia. Its counterpart, the House of Sisowath, is named for another son of Ang Duong, Sisowath I. The House of Norodom has produced four monarchs of Cambodia, and three Prime Ministers.
