Seattle is the largest city in the US state of Washington with an estimated population of about'000.
Seattle was officially founded on 15 February 1852. In the summer of 1852, the settlement was christened "Seattle" at the suggestion of David Maynard. Chief Seattle was the chief of an Indian tribe and was friends with Maynard. In 1853, Seattle's first sawmill was established, also the city's first factory.
In 1916, William Edward Boeing founded the Boeing aircraft company in Seattle. Other well-known companies headquartered in Seattle include Microsoft and Amazon and Starbucks. With 70,000 employees, Boeing is Seattle's largest employer.
A well-known Seattle tourist attraction is the 184-metre-high Space Needle.
