Wilmington is the largest city in Delaware and an important cultural and economic center in the region. Located at the confluence of the Christina and Brandywine rivers, the city has a rich history dating back to its founding by Swedish settlers in 1638.

Wilmington played a significant role in American industrialization, particularly through the legacy of the du Pont family and their gunpowder mills along the Brandywine. Today, the city maintains its historical character while serving as a corporate hub, with numerous financial institutions making their home here.

The city's cultural landscape includes various museums, historic sites, and performance venues, reflecting both its industrial heritage and artistic community. The Riverfront district has undergone significant revitalization, becoming a center for entertainment, dining, and cultural activities. Wilmington's proximity to Philadelphia, Baltimore, and Washington, D.C. has contributed to its development as a regional cultural destination.
