explanation: Located on Main river, a confluent of Rhine, in Hesse region, Frankfurt forms one of the largest metropolis in Germany (population ca. 650,000). It is also an European financial center because the European central bank has chosen its seat there. Built as a Roman colony, the emperors of Holy Roman Empire had been used to be elected in Frankfurt during the middle ages. Johann Wolfgang von Goethe was born in Frankfurt in 1749. Frankfurter Buchmesse is one of the oldest and largest book fairs of the world.
