The Thunders, or, Os Trovões, as they were called in the Portuguese, was a 1960s band from Macau, which achieved fame and success not only in Macau, but also in the neighboring British colony of Hong Kong. The band’s most well-known song is the song ‘Macau (Minha Terra)’ [Macau (My Homeland)], which was released in 1970. Another famous song of theirs is ‘She’s in Hong Kong’. The Thunders originated from another earlier band called ‘Colorful Diamonds’. In 1971, the band disbanded. Four of its members, Armando Ritchie, Herculano ‘Alou’ Airosa, Manuel Costa, and Rigoberto ‘Api’ Rosário Jr, emigrated to Brazil. Domingos ‘Lelé’ Rosa Duque remained in Macau. Some time later, Manuel emigrated from Brazil to Canada. About 30 years later, The Thunders played again in Macau, at Macanese Communities Reunion, held in November-December 2004.

Macau SAR:
Macau (澳門; 澳门), also spelled Macao and officially the Macao Special Administrative Region of the People's Republic of China, is a city and special administrative region of the People's Republic of China in the western Pearl River Delta by the South China Sea. With a population of about 680,000 and an area of 32.9 km2 (12.7 sq mi), it is the most densely populated region in the world.

Macau is a former colony of the Portuguese Empire, after Ming China leased the territory as a trading post in 1557. Portugal paid an annual rent and administered the territory under Chinese sovereignty until 1887, when it gained perpetual colonial rights in the Sino-Portuguese Treaty of Peking. The colony remained under Portuguese rule until 1999, when it was transferred to China. Macau is a special administrative region of China, which maintains separate governing and economic systems from those of mainland China under the principle of "one country, two systems".

The first known written record of the name "Macau", rendered as "Ya/A Ma Gang" ("亞/阿-媽/馬-港"), is found in a letter dated 20 November 1555. The local inhabitants believed that the sea-goddess Mazu (alternatively called A-Ma) had blessed and protected the harbour and called the waters around A-Ma Temple using her name. When Portuguese explorers first arrived in the area and asked for the place name, the locals thought they were asking about the temple and told them it was "Ma Kok" (媽閣). The earliest Portuguese spelling for this was Amaquão. Multiple variations were used until Amacão / Amacao and Macão / Macao became common during the 17th century. By the 1911 reform of Portuguese orthography, the spelling Macau became the standardised form; however, the use of Macao persisted in English and other European languages.

Macau Peninsula had many names in Chinese, including Jing'ao (井澳/鏡澳), Haojing (濠鏡), and Haojing'ao (濠鏡澳). The islands Taipa, Coloane, and Hengqin were collectively called Shizimen (十字門). These names would later become Aomen (澳門), Oumún in Cantonese and translating as "bay gate" or "port gate", to refer to the whole territory. (from Wikipedia)

澳門（葡萄牙語：Macau；英語：Macao），簡稱澳[參，古稱濠鏡澳，或稱濠江、龙涯门、海鏡、鏡海、馬交、梳打埠[註，是中華人民共和國兩個特别行政区之一，位於南海北岸、珠江口西側，北接廣東省珠海市，東面與鄰近的香港相距63公里，其餘兩面與南海鄰接。

澳門由澳門半島、氹仔、路氹及路環四個區域所組成，2000年後氹仔與路環之間填海形成出以賭業為主的路氹城：澳門半島是澳門的核心，其東北面小部份陸地與中国大陸連接，氹仔和路環原本分別為兩座離島，後來因填海而成為路氹城。

澳門自從秦始皇三征嶺南後屬中國版圖，從明中葉的1557年開始租借予葡萄牙人，但明朝设置官府管理。直至1849年葡萄牙停止向清朝交地租並佔領關閘；1887年，葡萄牙與大清簽訂有效期為40年的《中葡和好通商條約》（至1928年期滿失效）後，澳門成為葡萄牙殖民地[參]。1980年代，葡萄牙與中國探討澳門前途，其後於1987年簽署《中葡聯合聲明》，葡萄牙根据声明於1999年12月20日移交澳門政權予中國，實行一國兩制，「澳人治澳、高度自治」。

澳門為獨立經濟體，是中華人民共和國管辖范围內唯一允許合法經營賭場的地區，博彩業及旅游业為澳门的支柱產業，現時已發展為「世界上第一大賭城」[失效連結]。澳門為世界上人口密度最高的地區，每平方公里人口超過2萬。2017年澳門的人均本地生產總值依國際匯率爲78,586美元，名列世界第二。[參 17]澳門2017年人均本地居民总收入依购买力平价爲102,480美元，名列世界第二。

澳門古稱蠔（後改“濠”）鏡澳，意指盛產蠔且水域如鏡的港灣，與香山縣的歷史關係極其密切。而澳外又有十字門，故合稱澳門。

秦首度划岭南地区入中国版图，澳門屬南海郡番禺縣。420年（晉元熙二年），屬新会郡封樂縣。590年（隋開皇十年），廢新會郡，改屬寶安縣，757年（唐至德二年），廢寶安縣，改属東莞縣。自南宋開始，屬香山縣。據史料記載，宋末名將張世傑軍隊曾在澳門一帶駐紮。早期在澳門定居的人在此形成小村落，倚靠漁業與農業種植為生。當時澳門人以蜑家人和客家人為主。(from Wikipedia)
