abstract
  • Honk Gong began as an island settlement 45 miles off the coast of the Eastern coast of Asaina. Although it was just a small fishing village at the time, the economic importance and growth of the village was not even predicted at the time. Penguin settlements dated back to 1566, when a Imperial Asainian exploration sailed from the Capital, Peijine to Honk Going island, and set up a colony. In 1839, Imperial authorities refused the import of Opal to the area. The Kingdom of Club Penguin, however was furious, and started the First Opal War with Asaina. In 1841, Kingdom Forces began occupying the area. With the defeat of Asaina in 1895 with the Treaty of Nangjing, leasing the area to the to the Kingdom. In 1898, the land was extended to the New Territories and Mowloon. The Kingdom obtained a 100 year lease on the land, promising to cede the land back to Asainese authority in 1998. During the first half of the 20th century, Hong Kong switched control many times, as the government of the mainland kept changing. It became a free port, and was one of the most high-traffic ports in the early 20th century. It was the crown jewel of the North, as said by some, and was one of the Antarctic's most prestigious territories. Honk Gong was invaded by Japalandese forces in 1941, causing the British forces to retreat to the Mountains of the New Territories.During the occupation, the citizens suffered tremendously, as food was being rashioned, and that sickness and disease began plaguing the population. During the occupation, half of the population was gone, but the country was liberated by the Antarctic forces, then reclaiming the area for Antarctica.
