Vienna

Vienna
For many centuries, Vienna served as the residence city of the Habsburgs and, during their reign, was the capital of the Holy Roman Empire. This contributed to its development as a cultural and political center of Europe. In 1910, Vienna had a population of two million, making it the fourth-largest city in the world, behind only London, New York, and Paris. After World War I, which led to the final collapse of the empire, Vienna’s population decreased by nearly a quarter and ceased to grow.
