The Hong Kong Special Administrative Region of the People's
Republic of China is located on the southeastern coast of China,
and the Macao SAR can be found off of China's southern coast. Both
regions have recently been released from European colonial rule:
Hong Kong from British control in 1997 and Macao from Portugal in
1999. As SARs, Hong Kong and Macao retain a high degree of
autonomy, and they control all issues except those of state (e.g.
diplomatic relations and national defense). The A to Z of the Hong
Kong SAR and the Macao SAR includes maps, photographs, a list of
acronyms, a chronology, an introductory essay, a bibliography, and
hundreds of cross-referenced dictionary entries on important
persons, places, and events as well as political, economic and
social background. However, unlike the rest of the series, all
these sections are presented in duplicate: one for Hong Kong and
one for Macao. The authoritative analysis and informative data
presented clearly elucidate the unique situation of these two
territories.
