With over 7.5 million inhabitants of various nationalities in 1,104 square kilometers (426 square miles) of territory, Hong Kong is one of the most populous places in the world. Hong Kong became a colony of the British Empire after the Tsing Empire pricked the Hong Kong island at the end of the First Opium War in 1842. The colony expanded to the Kowloon Peninsula in 1860 after the Second Opium War and was expanded when Britain received a 99-year lease of the in 1898. The entire area was handed over to China in 1997. As a special administrative region, Hong Kong maintains separate systems of governance and economy from systems on a one country, two systems basis. However, decisions taken by the Standing Committee of the People's Congress cancel any territorial judicial process. In addition, under certain circumstances, the Council of State may enforce national legislation in the region. Originally a sparsely populated area of agricultural and fishing villages, the area became one of the most significant financial centres and trading ports in the world. It is the world's tenth largest exporter and the ninth largest importer. Hong Kong has a large capitalist service economy characterized by low taxation and free trade, and its currency, the Hong Kong dollar, is the eighth most traded currency in the world. Hong Kong is home to the second largest number of billionaires of any city in the world, the largest number of billionaires of any city in Asia, and the largest concentration of ultra-high net worth individuals of any city in the world.

Aberdeen was the original point of contact between British sailors and local fishermen. Although the source of the novelized name is unknown, it is believed that this is an early phonetic visualization of cantonal pronunciation of Ongg gong. The name translates as a fragrant harbour or a haven of incense. Fragrant may refer to the sweet taste of freshwater inflows into the harbour from Pearl River or to the smell from the incense factories lining the coast of North Kowloon. The incense was stored near Aberdeen Harbour for export before Victoria Harbour developed. Sir John Davies (second colonial governor) proposed an alternative origin; Davis said the name comes from Hoong-keang (red torrent), reflecting the color of the soil over which the waterfall flows on the island. The simplified name Hong Kong was often used in 1810. The name was also often written as a single word Hongkong until 1926, when the government officially adopted the name of two words. Some corporations founded at the beginning of the colonial era still hold this name, including , Hongkong Electric Company, Hongkong and Shanghai Hotels and Hongkong and Shanghai Banking Corporation (HSBC). The main articles of history: The and the history of China Region was first occupied by humans during the Neolithic period, about 6,000 years ago. However, in 2003, stone tools were excavated at the archaeological site of Wong Tei Tung, which optical luminescence tests showed a date between 35,000 and 39,000 years ago. Early settlers in Hong Kong were semi-coastal people who migrated from the deep and brought knowledge about rice cultivation. For the first time in 214 BC, the Tsing Dynasty incorporated Hong Kong into China, after the conquest of the indigenous Bayue. The region was united under the Nanyu kingdom (the predecessor of Vietnam) after the collapse of the Tsin and recaptured by China after the conquest of Han. During the Mongolian conquest of China in the 13th century, the court of the southern song was briefly located in the modern city of Kowloon (the place of Sun Wong Toi) before its final defeat at the Battle of Yamena in 1279. By the end of the yuan dynasty, seven large families had settled in the region and owned most of the land. Settlers from the nearby provinces migrated to Kowloon throughout the . The earliest European guest was the Portuguese explorer Jorge Alvarez, who arrived in 1513. Portuguese merchants founded a trading post called Tamao in Hong Kong waters and began regular trade with southern China. Although the merchants were expelled after military clashes in the 1520s, Portuguese-Chinese trade relations were re-established by 1549. Portugal 's permanent lease in 1557. After the conquest of Tsing, maritime trade was banned under Haidin's policy. Emperor Kansi lifted the ban, allowing foreigners to enter Chinese ports in 1684. In 1757, the Tsing authorities established the Cantonese system to regulate trade more strictly, restricting non-Russian vessels to the port of Canton. Although European demand for Chinese goods, such as tea, silk and , was high, Chinese interest in European goods was negligible, so Chinese goods could only be bought with precious metals. To reduce the trade imbalance, the British sold large quantities of Indian opium to China. Faced with a drug crisis, Tsing officials pursued increasingly aggressive action to stop the opium trade. In 1839, Emperor Daoguang rejected proposals to legalize and tax opium and ordered imperial commissioner Lin Tsex to eradicate the opium trade. The Commissioner destroyed opium stockpiles and suspended all foreign trade, prompting a British military response and the First Opium War. Tsin surrendered at the beginning of the war and urened Hong Kong Island in the Chuengpi Convention. However, both countries were dissatisfied and did not ratify the agreement. After more than a year of further hostilities, the island of Hong Kong was formally lost to the United Kingdom in the Nanjing Treaty of 1842. Administrative infrastructure was quickly built by early 1842, but , disease and the hostile policy of the Tsin initially prevented the government from attracting trade. Conditions on the island improved during the Taiping Uprising in the 1850s, when many Chinese refugees, including wealthy merchants, fled mainland turbulence and settled in colonies. Further tensions between the British and Tsing over the opium trade escalated into the Second Opium War. Tsing was defeated again and was forced to abandon the Kowloon Peninsula and Stonecutters Island in the Beijing Convention. By the end of the war, Hong Kong had evolved from a transitional colonial outpost into a major entrepet. The rapid improvement in the economic situation in the 1850s attracted foreign investment as potential stakeholders became more confident in Hong Kong's future. The colonial Hong Kong flag from 1959 to 1997 was expanded in 1898, when Britain received a 99-year lease of the New Territories. The was founded in 1911 as the first higher institution of the territory. began operations in 1924, and the colony avoided a protracted economic downturn after a strike in Canton Hong Kong in 1925-1926. At the beginning of the Second Sino-Japanese War in 1937, Governor Jeffrey Northcote declared Hong Kong a neutral zone to maintain its free port status. Colonial government prepared for possible attack, evacuate all Women and children in The Imperial Japanese Army attacked Hong Kong on December 8, 1941, the same morning as the attack on Pearl Harbor. Hong Kong was occupied by for nearly four years before Britain resumed control on August 30, 1945. Its population quickly recovered from the war, as experienced Chinese migrants fled China's civil war, and more refugees crossed the border when the Communist Party took control of mainland China in 1949. Hong Kong became the first of the four Asian Tiger economies industrialized in the 1950s. In the post-war decades, a public housing programme, the Independent Commission Against Corruption and the Public Transport Railway were established to provide safer housing, the integrity of the civil service and more reliable transport. Although the Territory's competitiveness in manufacturing has gradually declined due to rising labour and real estate costs, it has shifted to a service-based economy. By the early 1990s, Hong Kong had established itself as a global financial centre and shipping hub. The colony faced an uncertain future as the end of the lease of new territories approached, and Governor Murray McLejos raised the issue of Hong Kong's status with Deng Xiaoping in 1979. Diplomatic negotiations with China led to the creation of the Sino-British Joint Declaration of 1984, in which the United Kingdom agreed to hand over the colony in 1997 and China would guarantee Hong Kong an economic and political system for 50 years after the transfer. The upcoming broadcast sparked a wave of mass emigration as residents feared the erosion of civil rights, the rule of law and the quality of life. More than half a million people left the territory during the peak migration period, from 1987 to 1996. Hong Kong was transferred to China on July 1, 1997, after 156 years of British rule. Immediately after the transfer, Hong Kong was severely affected by several crises. The Government was forced to use significant foreign exchange reserves to maintain a currency peg to the Hong Kong dollar during the Asian financial crisis of 1997, and the recovery was then muted by an outbreak of H5N1 avian influenza and a housing surplus. This was followed by the SARS epidemic of 2003, during which the Territory experienced the worst economic downturn. The political debate after the transfer of sovereignty centred around the democratic development of the region and the central government's commitment to the principle of one country, two systems. Following the repeal of the last democratic reforms of the Colonial-era Legislative Council following the transfer of power, the regional government unsuccessfully attempted to pass national security legislation under article 23 of the Basic Law. Central The decision to pre-screen candidates before allowing the election of the chief executive sparked a series of protests in 2014 that became known as the Umbrella Revolution. Differences in the electoral register and the disqualification of elected legislators after the Legislative Council elections in 2016 and enforcement of national legislation at the West Kowloon high-speed train station have raised further concerns about the region's autonomy. In June 2019, mass protests erupted in response to a proposed extradition bill allowing the extradition of fugitives to mainland China. The protests are the largest in Hong Kong history, with organizers claiming to have attracted more than a million Hong Kong residents. Government and Policy Highlights: Hong Kong Government, Hong Kong Politics, and Separation of Powers in Hong Kong Legislative Assembly meets at the Legislative Council Complex in Tamara. Hong Kong is a special administrative region of China, with executive, legislative and judicial powers transferred from the national government. The Sino-British Joint Declaration provided for economic and administrative continuity through the transfer of sovereignty, resulting in a largely inherited system from the history of the Territory as a British colony. In accordance with these terms and the principle of one country, two systems The basic is the regional constitution. The regional government consists of three branches of government: the Executive: The Executive Director is responsible for enforcing regional legislation, can force a review of the legislation, and appoints executive board members and chief officials. In an emergency or public danger, the Chief Executive of the Council is also empowered to enact any regulations necessary to restore public order. Legislature: The Unicameral Legislative Council adopts a regional law, approves budgets and has the right to impeach the incumbent chief executive. Judicial Power: The Last Appeal Court and the lower courts interpret laws and repeal laws incompatible with the Basic Law. Judges are appointed by the Chief Executive Officer on the recommendation of the Recommendation Commission. Main article: Hong Kong's Judiciary Chief Executive is head of government and serves a maximum of two five-year terms. The Council of State (headed by the Chinese Prime Minister) appoints a head of state authorities after being appointed head of the electoral commission, which consists of 1,200 business, public and government leaders. The Legislative Council has 70 members, each serving a four-year term. 35 are elected directly from geographical constituencies and 35 35 Functional Constituencies (FC). Thirty FC councillors are elected from limited electoral commissions representing sectors of the economy or special interest groups, while the remaining five members are appointed by existing members of the district council and elected in two direct elections throughout the region. All popularly elected members are elected on the basis of proportional representation. Thirty limited constituencies fill their seats with the first or instant vote. Twenty-two political parties elected representatives to the Legislative Council in the 2016 elections. These parties were united into three ideological groups: the pro-Beijing camp (the current government), the pro-democracy camp and local groups. The Communist Party has no official political presence in Hong Kong and its members do not go to local elections. Hong Kong is represented in the National Congress by 36 deputies elected through the Electoral College and 203 delegates to the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference appointed by the central government. The Court of Appeal previously housed the Supreme Court and the Legislative Council. Chinese national law is generally not applied in the region, and Hong Kong is regarded as a separate jurisdiction. Its judicial system is based on common law, continuing the legal tradition established during British rule. Local courts may invoke precedents set in English law and foreign jurisprudence. However, the Mainland Criminal Procedure Act applies to cases investigated by the National Security Directorate of the CNG in the SARG. The interpretation and change of power over the Basic Law and jurisdiction over state acts rest with the central authority, resulting in the regional courts ultimately subject to the socialist system of civil law of the mainland. Decisions taken by the Standing Committee of the People's Congress cancel any territorial judicial process. In addition, with the Standing Committee declaring a state of emergency in Hong Kong, the Council of State can enforce national legislation in the region. The independence of the territory is most evident in its immigration and tax policy. The Immigration Department issues passports to permanent residents who are different from those of the mainland or Macau, and the region maintains a regulated border with the rest of the country. All travelers between Hong Kong and China and Macau must pass border controls, regardless of nationality. Citizens of mainland China are not entitled to reside in Hong Kong and are subject to immigration controls. Public finances are processed separately from the national government; taxes levied in Hong Kong do not finance the central government. Hong Kong The People's Liberation Army is responsible for the defence of the region. Although the Central Military Commission is chaired by the Supreme Commander of the Armed Forces, the regional government may seek assistance from the garrison. Hong Kong residents were not required to serve in the military, and the current legislation did not provide for local conscription, so its protection was entirely made up of non-Hong Kongonggers. The central government and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs handle diplomatic matters, but Hong Kong retains the ability to maintain separate economic and cultural relations with foreign countries. The Territory is actively participating in the World Trade Organization, the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation Forum, the International Olympic Committee and many United Nations agencies. The regional government has trade offices in Greater China and other countries. Administrative Units Main Articles: The list of cities in Hong Kong and Hong Kong areas The Territory is divided into 18 districts, each represented by the District Council. They advise the Government on local issues such as public facilities, community programmes, cultural promotion and environmental policy. In total, there are 479 seats on district councils, 452 of which are directly elected. Rural committee chairmen representing remote villages and towns fill 27 unelected seats. Political Reform and Public And Political Issues Main Articles: Democratic Development in Hong Kong and Human Rights in Hong Kong 2019 Hong Kong protests Hong Kong is governed by a hybrid regime that is not fully representative of the population. Members of the Legislative Council, elected by functional constituencies consisting of professional groups and groups representing special interests, are accountable to these narrow corporate voters, not the public. This electoral arrangement guaranteed a majority in the pro-establishment legislature after the transfer of sovereignty. Similarly, the chief executive is elected by agency politicians and corporate members of the electoral commission, rather than directly elected. Although the universal suffrage to the post of Chief Executive and all elections to the Legislative Council are certain objectives of Articles 45 and 68 of The Basic Law, the Legislature is only partially elected and the executive branch continues to be nominated by an unrepresentative body. The Government has repeatedly requested direct elections for these posts. Ethnic minorities (except of European origin) have little representation in government and are often discriminated against in housing, and employment. Employment and public service vacancies often have language requirements that minority job seekers do not meet and language education resources not enough for Chinese students. Foreign domestic workers, mostly women from the Philippines and Indonesia, have little protection under regional law. Although they live and work in Hong Kong, they are not treated as ordinary residents and are not entitled to reside in the territory. Sex trafficking in Hong Kong is a problem. Honkanger and foreign women and girls are forced into prostitution in brothels, houses and businesses in the city. The Joint Declaration guarantees the Basic Law for 50 years after the transfer of sovereignty. It did not specify how Hong Kong would be governed after 2047, and the role of the central Government in determining the future system of governance of the Territory was the subject of political debate and speculation. Hong Kong's political and judicial system could be integrated with the Chinese at the time, or the territory could still be governed separately. In 2020, during a period of large-scale protests, the Standing Committee of the People's Congress passed Hong Kong's controversial National Security Act. The law criminalizes actions previously considered protected under Hong Kong law and establishes the National Security Directorate of the CNG in the SARK, an investigative office under the central people's government not protected from the jurisdiction of the SARG. The United Kingdom considers this law a serious violation of the Joint Declaration. Key geography articles: Hong Kong's geography and the 's urban development and vegetation areas are visible in this satellite image. Hong Kong is located on the southern coast of China, 60 km east of Macau, on the eastern side of the mouth of the Pearl River. It is surrounded by the South China Sea on all sides except the north, which is adjacent to the city of along the Sham Chun River. The area of 2,755 sq km (1,064 sq m) consists of Hong Kong Island, Kowloon Peninsula, New Territories, Lantau Island and more than 200 other islands. Of the total area, 1073 sq km (414 sq m) is land and 35 sq km (14 sq m) is water. The highest point of the territory is Tai Mo Shan, 957 meters above sea level. Urban development is concentrated on the Kowloon Peninsula, Hong Kong Island, and in new cities throughout the New Territories. Most of these lands are built on reclaimed land; 70 sq km (27 sq m) (six per cent of the total land area, or about 25 per cent of the area) is reclaimed from the sea. The untapped terrain is hilly to mountainous, with very few flatlands, and consists mainly of meadows, forests, shrubs or farmland. About 40 per cent of the remaining land area is made up of country parks and nature reserves. The territory has a diverse ecosystem; Over there are species of vascular plants (300 of which are pronounced Hong Kong) in the region, as well as thousands of species of insects, birds and marine species. The climate of Hong Kong has a humid subtropical climate (Kueppen Cwa), characteristic of southern China, despite being located south of the tropics of cancer. Summers are hot and humid, in some places showers and thunderstorms and warm air from the southwest. Typhoons occur most often then, sometimes leading to floods or landslides. Winter is mild and usually sunny at the beginning, becoming cloudy by February; Sometimes a cold front brings strong, cooling winds from the north. The most mild seasons are spring and autumn, which are usually sunny and dry. When there is snowfall, which is extremely rare, it usually happens at high altitudes.

The lack of vacant space limited the development of high-density apartment buildings and commercial complexes packed in close cooperation on the land they had prepared. Single-family detached houses are extremely rare and are usually found only in remote areas. The International Trade Center and Two International Financial Centres are the tallest buildings in Hong Kong and among the highest in the Asia-Pacific region. Other distinctive buildings lining the Hong Kong skyline include the HSBC main building, the triangular central square with an anemometer, the Hopewell Circular Centre and the Bank of China tower with a sharp edge. The demand for new construction contributed to the frequent demolition of old buildings, freeing up space for modern high-rises. However, many examples of European and architecture are still found throughout the territory. Old government buildings are examples of colonial architecture. Flagstaff House of 1846, the former residence of the commander of the British military, is the oldest Western-style building in Hong Kong.

About half of the population have some form of British citizenship, a legacy of colonial rule; 3.4 million people have British citizenship (overseas) status, and 260,000 British citizens live in the territory. The vast majority also have Chinese citizenship, automatically granted to all ethnic Chinese in the transfer of sovereignty. The population density, which is about 6,800 people/km2, does not reflect the true population density, since only 6.9% of the land is residential, the average population density is calculated closer to the heavily cramped 100,000/km2. The predominant language is Cantonese, a variety of Chinese originating from Guangdong.

Colonial Governments had little policy and had little or no trade control. In accordance with the doctrine of positive non-ness, post-war administrations deliberately avoid direct allocation of resources; active intervention was considered harmful to economic growth. While the economy shifted to service in the 1980s, the late colonial governments introduced interventionist policies. After the devolution of powers, the administrations continued to expand these programmes, including export loan guarantees, a mandatory pension system, the minimum wage, anti-discrimination laws and a public mortgage borrower.
