All of them guessing true are right. Hong Kong can be many things to different people, but it's almost universally never seen as a country of its own. Not even to Hong Kongers themselves. So they're right.

The question with "city" about Shibuya is by the way absolutely correct: Shibuya is legally a city, all 23 wards are cities, as the City of Tokyo was dissolved into 23 cities in 1946. That's why their is not a mayor of Tokyo, but only of Shibuya, Shinjuku etc. and a governeur of Tokyo

@matteokunimitsu 5 ай бұрын

it's legally a 特別区 which isn't the same as a 市

@daveprice5911 Ай бұрын

@@dragoneer121 Slightly different thing, if I am assuming this is the same as my city in Germany. Bremen is subdivided into Stadtteile (City Segments) all with unique names (for example the inner City has the Altstadt, the Neustadt and the Viertel, and just outside that you get Findorff, Walle and Schwachhausen). This places exist because of a: human nature and b: for administrative reasons, but we still only have one set of representatives governing over all of our city, making them city segments. Tokyo is literally a collective of cities, with each ward having its own mayor and governing body. You can more think of the entirety of Tokyo as a County than a City in this sense. Someone please correct me if I am wrong
