The ancient City of London (called Londinium, by the Romans), to which the name originally belonged, still retains its mediaeval boundaries, but the name 'London' has long been applied more generally to the whole metropolis which has grown up around it. Londinium built on the north bank of the River Thames in around 50 AD. By the 18th century London was the biggest city in the world. It was the most populous city in the world from 1825 until 1925. An important settlement for around two millennia, London is today one of the world's leading business, financial and cultural centres, and its influence in politics, education, entertainment, media, fashion and the arts all contribute to its status as one of the major global cities. It is the largest city in the EU with a population of over 7 million. It will also host the Olympics in 2012.

United Kingdom. The ancient City of London (called Londinium, by the Romans), to which the name originally belonged, still retains its mediaeval boundaries, but the name 'London' has long been applied more generally to the whole metropolis which has grown up around it. Londinium built on the north bank of the River Thames in around 50 AD. By the 18th century London was the biggest city in the world. It was the most populous city in the world from 1825 until 1925. <br /> An important settlement for around two millennia, London is today one of the world's leading business, financial and cultural centres, and its influence in politics, education, entertainment, media, fashion and the arts all contribute to its status as one of the major global cities. It is the largest city in the EU with a population of over 7 million. It will also host the Olympics in 2012.<br /> <br /> (360 virtual tour):<br /> <a href="/external_link?url=http://www.360cities.net/area/london-england" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">www.360cities.net/area/london-england</a><br /> <br /> London-photos on google maps: <a href="/external_link?url=http://tinyurl.com/2wnjphs" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">tinyurl.com/2wnjphs</a> </div> <div id="afterContentAdv" class="advertising-mobile"> </div> <div class="placeinfo-row placeinfo-additional nested-objects"> </div> <div class="placeinfo-row wikipedia-link"> <strong>Wikipedia article:</strong> <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/London" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/London</a> </div> <div> <b>Nearby cities:</b> <span class="city"></span> <span class="city"></span> <span class="city"></span> </div> <div><b>Coordinates:  </b> 51°31'7"N   -0°5'52"E</div> <div class="place-protected"> <i class="icon-lock icon-protected"></i> This article is protected. </div> <div id="comments" class="placeinfo-row placeinfo-additional comments-block clearfix"> <div id="comments-form-toggle"> <button data-rel="comments-form-toggle" class="notinwikistyle btn btn-large btn-block" type="button"> Add your comment in english </button> </div> <h4>Comments</h4> <ul class="unstyled comments-list comments-root active"> <li class="comment" id="comment-6"> <div class="comment-avatar"> <div class="thumbnail pull-left user-avatar"> <img class="small" src="/img/nofoto_50.png" alt=""> </div> </div> <div class="comment-body"> <div class="comment-header" id="comment-header-6"> <a data-rel="profile" rel="nofollow" href="/user/125599" id="comment-creator-6" class="user">Proximus</a> </div> <div id="comment-content-6" class="comment-content"> Anyway, I like London a lot.

But neither does it bear any relation to the far smaller area commonly termed 'Central London' instead, which has its own separate polygon in any event. It bears some relationship to the postal area of inner London covered by 'compass point' London postcodes and that's it. Mapping UK locations according to such 'postcode' criterion is directly contrary to the unanimous consensus of the WM community as concluded at the following forum thread: http://wikimapia.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=8629 Now that there has been some increase in the maximum size of polygons which we ordinary WMians are allowed to produce, then if the AUs were prepared to unlock/unprotect this polygon (and especially if Admins were equally prepared to unrestrict the number of polygon points permitted) I'd be quite happy to have a go at making the WM Polygon for this place, as famous and important as this is, a great deal more accurate than it is at present. </div> <div id="comment-footer-262" class="comment-footer"> <span id="comment-date-262" class="time">12
