In China, the regions are called "provinces". Simular to Canada.
Hong Kong is geographically attached to the Guongzhou province but it is a "Special Administrative Region" It does not have the same status of a province. It is self governed under the direct supervison of Beijin.
It's really just a coastal city by all means otherwise.

There is no state. Hong Kong is a city of China.

It is a Special Administrative Region of the People's Republic of China and one of the richest cities in the whole world:
"Today, Hong Kong is the world's 11th largest trading entity and 13th largest banking centre.[15]. Hong Kong surged past New York in 2006 to become the world's second most popular place — after London — for companies to float new stock listings.[16]
According to the Index of Economic Freedom and the Economic Freedom of the World Report, it is the freest economy on Earth. Hong Kong is a rich city with a GDP per capita surpassing most Western nations'. To put in perspective Hong Kong's economic strength, its closest Chinese rival, Shanghai, has a GDP of ¥46,586 (ca. US$ 5,620) per capita in 2003, ranked no. 13 among all 659 Chinese cities. Hong Kong on the other hand, possessed an unparalleled GDP of ¥310,021 (ca. US$ 37,400), ranked #1 in Asia.
It has one of the world's most and is a major international centre of finance and trade. The dominant presence of international trade is reflected in the number of consulates in the territory: as of December 2006, 114 countries maintained consulates or consulates-general in Hong Kong, more than any other city in the world. (Even New York City, host of the United Nations, has only 104 consulates.)"

I believe it's the Special Administrative Region (S.A.R) so it is not called 'State' in China. They call their 'States' 'Provinces'.
Hope I helped! ^^
