City Description
London is the capital of England and the United Kingdom.
It has been a major settlement for two millennia, and its history goes back to its founding by the Romans, when it was named Londinium.
London's core, the ancient City of London, the 'square mile', retains its medieval boundaries.
Since at least the nineteenth century, the name "London" has also referred to the metropolis developed around it.
Today, the bulk of this conurbation forms the London region and the Greater London administrative area, with its own elected mayor and assembly.
London is a major global city and one of the world's largest financial centres.
Central London is home to the headquarters of more than half of the UK's top 100 listed companies (the FTSE 100) and more than 100 of Europe's 500 largest.
London's influence in politics, education, entertainment, media, fashion, the arts and culture in general contributes to its global position.
It is a major tourist destination for both domestic and overseas visitors.
London hosted the 1908 and 1948 Summer Olympics and will host the 2012 Summer Olympics.
