1860, the Qing Dynasty was defeated by the British and French allied forces in the Second Opium War, and signed the Beijing Treaty, ceding the southern part of Boundary Street in Kowloon Peninsula to British administration.

1898, the Qing government and Britain signed the Special Provisions on Expanding Hong Kong's Border, and leased the New Territories for 99 years until1June 30, 1997, ending the period of British rule.

On the other hand, the transfer of sovereignty has accelerated the economic and social integration of China and Hongkong. The handover of Hong Kong's sovereignty also marks the end of Britain's most brilliant colonial era since the Victorian era.
