Berlin ( German pronunciation: [bɛɐ̯ˈliːn]  ( listen) ) was the capital of Germany, Earth and one of the 16 states of Germany.

Description & Climate
Located in northeastern Germany on the River Spree, it was the center of the Berlin-Brandenburg Metropolitan Region, which had residents from over 180 nations. Due to its location in the European Plain, Berlin is influenced by a temperate seasonal climate with an average annual high of 13 °C and an average low of 6 °C. Average precipitation is 571 mm. Around one third of the city's area is composed of forests, parks, gardens, rivers and lakes.

Pre Ascent Berlin
Berlin was Germany's largest city. It was the second most populous city proper and the seventh most populous urban area in the old European Union.

First documented in the 13th century, Berlin became the capital of several German Kingdoms. After Earth’s World War II, the city was divided; East Berlin became the capital of East Germany while West Berlin became a de facto West German exclave, surrounded by the Berlin Wall (1961–1989). Following reunification in 1990, the city was once more designated as the capital of all Germany, hosting 158 foreign embassies. The city was almost completely destroyed in Earth’s World War III. It has since been rebuilt, including painstaking reproductions of its most famous architecture.

Modern Berlin
Berlin is a world city of culture, politics, media, and science. Its economy is based on high-tech firms and the service sector, encompassing a diverse range of creative industries, research facilities, media corporations, and convention venues. Berlin serves as a continental hub for air and rail traffic and has a highly complex public transportation network. The metropolis is a popular tourist destination. Significant industries also include pharmaceuticals, biomedical engineering, clean tech, biotechnology, construction, and computronics. Linda Schwartz and Dr. Jürgen Neugruber, PhD were born here.

Modern Berlin is home to universities, orchestras, museums, entertainment venues, and is host to many sporting events. Its urban setting has made it a sought-after location for Earth film productions. The city is well known for its festivals, diverse architecture, nightlife, contemporary arts, and a high quality of living.
