Miami, located on the Atlantic coast in southeastern Florida, is a major center for finance, commerce, culture, and international business. The city was officially incorporated on July 28, 1896, at a time when the area had just over 300 residents. Its development was heavily driven by the vision of Julia Tuttle, the 'Mother of Miami,' and railroad magnate Henry Flagler. Today, the Port of Miami is known as the 'Cruise Capital of the World,' handling more passengers than any other port globally. The Miami metropolitan area, with a population of over 6.1 million, is the seventh-largest in the United States. The city's economy is diverse, relying heavily on tourism, international banking, and the real estate sector. Culturally, Miami is renowned for its large Cuban-American population, which has shaped the Little Havana neighborhood, and for the Art Deco architecture in South Beach, which attracts millions of visitors annually. The city is also a major location for the music and entertainment industry, particularly for Spanish-language media.
