'''Macau''' (also spelled Macao) is a [[Special Administrative Region]] of the [[People's Republic of China]] that was returned to Chinese rule after around 400 years of rule by Portugal. It is governed by a [[Basic Law]] similar to that of [[Hong Kong]], but which takes into account its different [[legal system]], culture and history. Its official languages are Portuguese and Chinese, although very few people actually speak the former. Its currency is the pataca, which is pegged to the Hong Kong dollar. Its main industries are gambling and tourism, together with some light industry.
