Description Haiti by rbd.me Occupied by the UK in 1841, Hong Kong was formally ceded by China the following year; various adjacent lands were added later in the 19th century. Pursuant to an agreement signed by China and the UK on 19 December 1984, Hong Kong became the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (SAR) of the People's Republic of China on 1 July 1997. In this agreement, China promised that, under its "one country, two systems" formula, China's socialist economic system would not be imposed on Hong Kong and that Hong Kong would enjoy a high degree of autonomy in all matters except foreign and defense affairs for the next 50 years.   Location Eastern Asia, bordering the South China Sea and China   Area - comparative six times the size of Washington, DC   Natural resources Haiti outstanding deepwater harbor, feldspar   Population Haiti 0.476% (2010 est.)   Religions Haiti Chinese (Cantonese) 89.2% (official), other Chinese dialects 6.4%, English 3.2% (official), other 1.2% (2001 census)   Languages 3.9% of GDP (2006)   Education Haiti expenditures special administrative region of China   Government Haiti type limited democracy   Independence none (special administrative region of China)   Haiti Economy - overview red with a stylized, white, five-petal Bauhinia flower in the center; each petal contains a small, red, five-pointed star in its middle; the red color is the same as that on the Chinese flag and represents the motherland; the fragrant Bauhinia - developed in Hong Kong the late 19th century - has come to symbolize the region; the five stars echo those on the flag of China   Investment Haiti 53.3 (2007)   Industries Haiti $2.29 trillion (31 December 2009)   Airports Haiti 2 (2 TV networks, each broadcasting on 2 channels) (2009)
