Hong Kong
Hong Kong, or Hong Kong Special Administrative Region is a port city and special administrative region of China, currently under the suppressive
People’s Republic. Hong Kong is known for dim sum a traditional
Cantonese cuisine consisting of small, flavorful dishes served with tea. Beyond the culinary delights, Hong Kong is renowned for his stunning skyline, bustling harbor, and vibrant cultural scene.
Originally a sparsely populated area of farming and fishing villages, the territory is now one of the world's most significant financial centres and commercial ports. Hong Kong is the world's fourth-ranked global financial centre, ninth-largest exporter, and eighth-largest importer. His currency, the Hong Kong dollar, is the ninth most traded currency in the world. Home to the seventh-highest number of billionaires of any city in the world, Hong Kong has the largest number of ultra high-net-worth individuals. Although the city has one of the highest per capita incomes in the world, severe income inequality exists among the population. Despite being the city with the most skyscrapers in the world, housing in Hong Kong is consistently in high demand, with people having to pay up to thousands of dollars a month just for a “house”[1] that is no more than 4 square meters.
Hong Kong wears a top hat and a monocle because he was colonized by the British Empire, making him a place where east meats west.

History[edit | edit source]
On July 1 1999, the hundred years of Hong Kong as a British colony came to an end as the port city was officially transferred to the
Chinese Communist Pary. Hong Kong's gained the status as a Special Administrative Region (SAR) of the
People's Republic of China. Under the "one country, two systems" framework, Hong Kong was promised a high degree of autonomy, retaining its own legal and economic systems, while foreign and defense affairs would be handled by
Beijing.
The transition period was marked by both optimism and uncertainty. Hong Kong was hopeful that he would continue to prosper as an international financial hub, benefiting from the unique advantages of being part of China while maintaining his distinct identity. However, this was not going well as the
Chinese Communist Party seeks control and made Hong Kong more and more
authoritarian.
In 2019, the Anti-Extradition Law Amendment Bill Movement broke out and protesters poured into the streets. The government responded by initially defending the proposed legislation and attempting to push it through the legislative process despite widespread opposition. As protests intensified, the police employed tear gas, rubber bullets, and other crowd-control measures in an attempt to disperse the demonstrators. The confrontations often turned violent, with clashes between protesters and law enforcement becoming a regular occurrence.
The government's firm stance and the escalating police actions only fueled the protesters' determination. The movement's demands expanded beyond the withdrawal of the extradition bill to include broader calls for democratic reforms and police accountability. The government's refusal to grant these demands led to further escalation.
In an attempt to quell the unrest, chief executive Carrie Lam announced the suspension of the bill in June 2019, but this did not satisfy the protesters. The movement continued to grow, with millions of Hong Kong residents participating in marches and demonstrations. It wasn't until September 2019 that
Carrie Lam formally withdrew the extradition bill, but by then, the protests had evolved to address deeper issues regarding Hong Kong's autonomy and governance.
In June 2020, Beijing responded to the ongoing protests by imposing the “National Security Law” on Hong Kong. This law granted broad powers to the authorities to crack down on activities that the
CCP as secession, subversion,
terrorism, and collusion with foreign forces - so basically everything that the
CCP don’t agree with. The enactment of this law marked a significant turning point, leading to the arrest of numerous activists, the disbanding of
pro-democracy organizations, and a chilling effect on the freedoms previously enjoyed in Hong Kong.
