New York City--officially, "City of New York," and affectionately known as "The Big Apple"--is the largest city of the state of New York and in the United States, and by many measures, one of the most important cities in the world. The city is probably the most important financial center in the world, and by any account, one of the most important cultural centers of the Western world. The United Nations headquarters is in New York City, making the claim to be "capital of the world" something more than empty boasting. |
