Hong Kong is a special administrative region of China. Situated on China’s southern coast just south of Shenzhen, it consists of the eponymous island, the Kowloon Peninsula, and the New Territories, along with several smaller islands. With 7.5 million residents in a 1,114-square-kilometre (430 sq mi) territory, Hong Kong is the fourth most densely populated region in the world. Hong Kong was established as a colony of the British Empire after the Qing dynasty ceded Hong Kong Island in 1841–1842 as a consequence of losing the First Opium War.
