Hong Kong (Chinese: 香港) is one of two Special Administrative Regions (SARs) of the
People's Republic of China (PRC). Hong Kong became a colony of the British
after the First Opium War (1839–42) until 1997 when China resumed sovereignity.
A city-state situated
on China's south coast and enclosed by the Pearl River Delta and South China
Sea, it is renowned for its expansive skyline and deep natural harbour. With a
land mass of 1,104 km2 (426 sq mi) and a population of seven million people,
Hong Kong is one of the most densely populated areas in the world. Hong Kong's population
is 95 percent ethnic Chinese and 5 percent from other groups.
