Toronto

A relatively modern city, Toronto´s history dates back to the late 18th century, when its land was first purchased by the British monarchy. The settlement was later established as the Town of York and proclaimed as the new capital of Upper Canada. In 1834, York was incorporated as a city and renamed to its present name. Toronto was damaged in two grreat fires in 1849 and in 1904.

Toronto´s population is cosmopolitan and international. It´s one of the world´s most diverse cities by percentage of non-native-born residents, with about 49% of the population born outside Canada. It´s one of the most ethnically diverse in the world.
