		Hong Kong is an independent customs territory and economic entity separate from the rest of China and is able to enter into international agreements on its own behalf in commercial and economic matters.

	The New York Times: Hong Kong
		On July 1, 1997, Hong Kong, a fervently capitalist and increasingly democracy-minded British colony, came under the control of China, a Communist nation that values stability over individual freedoms.
		For the first time in Hong Kong's history a Hong Konger stepped before his people as their leader Tuesday, explaining in their own dialect of Cantonese how the onset of Chinese rule would change their lives.
		As Asian neighbors watched the celebratory fireworks in Hong Kong, their thoughts were far from the issue that has preoccupied the United States -- whether Communist China will crack down on civil liberties in Hong Kong.

		Occupied by the UK in 1841, Hong Kong was formally ceded by China the following year; various adjacent lands were added later in the 19th century.
		GDP growth averaged a strong 5% from 1989 to 1997, but Hong Kong suffered two recessions in the past six years because of the Asian financial crisis in 1998 and the global downturn in 2001 and 2002.
		Although the Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS) outbreak also battered Hong Kong's economy, a boom in tourism from the mainland because of China's easing of travel restrictions, a return of consumer confidence, and a solid rise in exports resulted in the resumption of strong growth in late 2003 and in 2004.
