China has two Special Administrative Regions or SAR's; Hong Kong and Macau. Hong Kong became a SAR in 1997 and Macau in 1999 at the end of long term rule by European settlers. Now under Chinese rule both countries as Special Administrative Region have a Basic Law which provides the region with a separate political system and a capitalist economy under what is known as "one country, two systems". China is responsible for the territory's defense and foreign affairs, while the two countries maintain their own legal system, police force, monetary system, customs policy, Immigration policy, and delegates.
