Liverpool / Reino Unido

Liverpool é uma cidade do condado de Merseyside, localizado no noroeste da Inglaterra, Reino Unido, no lado norte do estuário do Mersey. A cidade está localizada no extremo sudoeste do condado tradicional de Merseyside. Em 29 de agosto de 1207, o rei João outorgou alvará que transformava a pequena vila de pescadores de Liverpool em município livre; um segundo alvará, outorgado por Henrique III em 1229, concedeu aos mercadores o direito de comércio sem necessidade de pagar taxas governamentais, nascendo assim o porto de Liverpool. Foi na fase final do reinado de Elizabeth I, na época do comércio com o novo mundo, que o porto da cidade se tornou a principal porta para o novo mundo. A grande peste de 1664 e o grande incêndio de 1666 em Londres fez com que muitos mercadores se mudassem para Liverpool e o porto prosperou. Liverpool durante a Segunda Guerra Mundial sofreu terríveis ataques aéreos. Nos desportos, o Everton FC e o Liverpool F.C. fazem um dos clássicos de futebol mais antigos do mundo, o Merseyside derby. Liverpool também foi porto para transatlânticos como o RMS Titanic. A cidade também ficou famosa, sobretudo, por ter revelado a famosa banda de rock The Beatles e, em menor prestígio, Liverpool Express.
