It is one of the two Special Administrative Regions of China (the other being Hong Kong) and despite a relatively small population of around 600,000, it's economy is booming - largely due to manufacturing, tourism and gambling (Macau is the only location in China where you can legally gamble and income from gambling is in excess of $45 billion a year dwarfing the income generated in Las Vegas!).
