Macau (Seyana)

Macau or Macao is an autonomous region and city in the Federal Republic of China. Macau continues to be the gambling capital of the world along with its economy continuing to be dominated by tourism and gambling.
Throughout the 21st century Macau faced major problems from sea level rise; along with major typhoons. Gambling, one of the main leading forces of Macau's economy, faced more difficulty by stronger typhoons combined with sea level rise; leading to all casinos being shut down more often on occasion, leading to temporary decline in its economy. The first typhoon to begin that effect was in 2018; being the first one to cause Macau to shut down all of their casinos afterwards.
In the 2040s, sea walls were built to protect the city from the rise of sea level. However, Macau continued to suffer from the effects of both typhoons and flooding over the course of the 21st century due to climate change. 
In 2067, a series of protests swept the People's Republic of China, with a major protest occurring in Macau. The national government's attempts to suppress the movements led to the collapse of the Communist Chinese government and the formation of new nations arising from it. Macau, along with Hong Kong, soon fell under the control of the Guangdong Republic by the 2080s. 
Under the rule of the Guangdong Republic, Macau saw a decent amount of personal and political freedoms, and also saw the legalisation of soft drugs including marijuana. Along with the rest of the world, efforts to reverse climate change were underway leading to the gradual fall of sea levels, with Macau largely recovering by the 2170s. 
During the Anhui's invasions of Guangdong in the 2180s, Macau went mostly unscathed, though was temporary occupied by the Anhui's Armed Forces along with seeing a major economic downturn. Upon Macau's admission to the Anhui Republic in 2203, the city saw further reconstruction, and the nearby city of was merged into Macau following a plebiscite.
Since the unification of China and the establishment of the Federal Republic of China, Macau remained an autonomous region, and enjoyed higher overall freedoms. Macau also re-emerged as the gambling capital of the world during the early 23rd century, and is a major powerhouse economically, on par with Hong Kong.
