What country is Hong Kong part of?

Answer 1

Hong Kong is part of the People's Republic of China since 1997. Before that, it used to be part of the United Kingdom, after the Second Opium war the Chinese empire 'leased' Hong Kong for 99 years to the UK. Although Hong Kong is part of the PRC, it still has a lot of autonomy, only defense and foreign affairs are controlled by the Central Government in Beijing.

Answer 2

Hong Kong is a small island situated on China's south east coast and enclosed by the Pearl River Delta and South China Sea, therefore is not physically a "part" of China.

Its sovereignty, however, is ruled by the People's Republic of China (PRC). It is one of China's two special administrative regions (SAR); the other SAR being Macau. Its political system is governed by the Basic Law of Hong Kong, which stipulates that it shall have a "high degree of autonomy" in everything apart from military defense and foreign relations. Hong Kong's sovereignty was transferred from British rule to Chinese rule in 1997.

In short, whilst detached physically from the mainland, Hong Kong is very much a "part" of China.
