The House of Norodom is the ruling royal house of Cambodia. Its members are direct descendants of King Norodom Prohmbarirak (1860–1904), 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.
