Miami

Miami is an important city in the United States which is located on the south-eastern coast of Florida. It was oficially found on 28th July 1896, when there were approximately only 400 inhabitants. The great demografic explosion is due to the massive immigration, both from other States from U.S.A. and from abroad.

In Miami there are many different peoples, buth the most important influence is played by the Latin-American and Carribean communities that speak Spanish and Creole. Because of its cultural and linguistic links between North, South and Carribean American States, Miami i salso called “the capital city of Americas”.
