Hong Kong

From Turtledove

Hong Kong is Chinese territory situated on an island off the coast of mainland. Beginning as a trading port, Hong Kong became a dependent territory of the United Kingdom in 1842, and remained so until transfer of sovereignty of Hong Kong back to China in 1997. It remains a major port and financial center. Officially a "special administrative region", Hong Kong is largely self-governing, compared with other parts of China.

Hong Kong was a British colony until 1943, it was taken by Japan in the Second Great War. This, despite the fact that Japan and Britain had entered the war as allies.
