It's a good way of building national pride, and I don't think my views are far from the truth.

If you go to New York City, you will see signs proclaiming it as the capital of the world. If you go to the Empire State Building it says it is the capital of the capital of the world. What a joke eh? There is no other place that is as overrated as New York. I lived in normal 'York' in England and that is a far more interesting place to visit, even after living there for four years.
