Liverpool is a city in Merseyside, North West England. It sits on the eastern side of the Mersey Estuary and is bordered by areas including Knowsley, St Helens, Halton and Sefton. As a major port city, Liverpool was one of the most significant trading centres in the world from the 18th century onwards, playing a central role in the growth of the British Empire.
It has a population in the region of 500,000, with the wider city region home to over 1.6 million people. Liverpool grew rapidly during the Industrial Revolution as a gateway for trade and emigration between Britain and the Americas.
The city has a proud Irish heritage, with large waves of Irish immigrants settling in Liverpool during the 19th century, particularly during the Great Famine of the 1840s.
The city also has a deep connection to the transatlantic slave trade, which significantly shaped its historic waterfront and merchant wealth — a history that Liverpool has increasingly acknowledged and reflected upon in recent years.
Liverpool is a city with an unrivalled passion for football, home to two Premier League clubs — Liverpool FC, who play at Anfield, and Everton FC. The city's footballing culture is woven into everyday life and is a major draw for visitors and residents alike. Cultural interest abounds, with the iconic Royal Albert Dock housing the Tate Liverpool gallery and the Merseyside Maritime Museum.
The Museum of Liverpool on the waterfront is one of the most visited museums outside of London. Liverpool is perhaps best known globally as the birthplace of The Beatles, and the city embraces this legacy wholeheartedly — from the Beatles Story museum at Albert Dock to the famous Mathew Street and Cavern Club.
