The world's first industrialised city caused by the textile boom during the Industrial Revolution at the start of the 19th century, the city of Manchester took its name from "Mamucium" or "Mancunium", a former Roman fort. The city is now renowned for its architecture, culture, music, scientific and engineering innovations, sports clubs, and as a major transport hub.
