Detroit (IPA: [d?'t????t]) (French: Détroit, pronounced [det?wa] (help·info)) is the largest city in the U.S. state of Michigan and is the seat of Wayne County. Founded in 1701 by French fur traders, it is a major port city, located north of Windsor, Ontario, on the Detroit River in the Midwest/Great Lakes Region of the United States. It is known as the world's traditional automotive center and an important source of popular-music legacies, celebrated by the city's two familiar nicknames, Motor City and Motown. Detroit was also known as the "Paris of the West." The city's name comes from the Detroit River (in French Rivière du Détroit), meaning "River of the Strait." The name alludes to the connection the river forms between Lake St. Clair and Lake Erie.[2] In 2005, Detroit ranked as the United States's 11th most populous city, with 886,675 residents. -- Source: Wikipedia.com
