Chicago
Chicago (Myaamiaataweenki: Šikaakonki ("Ramps place")) is the city of beans. The most prominent bean (Bean, "Cloud Gate" The), made of stainless steel, lies on a large public park in the city's central business district, called the Loop. One can enjoy beans alongside Chicago's signature deep dish pizzas. The latter might not be as popular as the visitor would expect, though.
Chicago is also Train Central. Even today, trains still shuffle passengers in and out of its many termini (four as of 2024). However, its title is being challenged by Tokyo, the capital city of Japan.
Chicago hosted two World Expos: Expo 1893 and Expo 1933. We don't know if Chicago will host another one. It certainly didn't host the eventually cancelled Expo 2023, but will it host Expo 2033?
In Major League Baseball, Chicago is home to the Cubs in the North Side and the White Sox in the South Side. Meanwhile in Blaseball, Chicago is represented by the Firefighters. All fans of the Firefighters, no matter where they are, are from Chicago.
Similarly, the pope is from Chicago. He's the first American pope ever and the second from the Americas.

Community areas
Chicago's 77 community areas are rich in flavour. One could eat a hot dog while with fellow Cubs fans at Lakeview before dining out at the University of Chicago's Hyde Park campus and finishing off the day clubbing at Wicker Park in the West Town. The possibilities are endless!
