It has about 1.3 million inhabitants, but the urban area totals about 4 million. It is the capital of the region and is by some defined as the economic capital of Italy. It has for many centuries been recorded as Mailand, which is still the German name of the city today.
The town is famous for fashion firms and shops (via Montenapoleone) and the traditional sweet cake called Panettone.

Transport
Milan has a large international airport known as Malpensa International Airport, which is located in Varese, Italy.It also has the Linate Airport in the actual city limits, and the Orio al Serio International Airport in Bergamo, Italy, for Europe traffic.
History
It is presumed it was originally founded by the Celts of Northern Italy around 600 BC and was conquered by the Romans around 222 BC, who gave it the name of Mediolanum. In the 4th century A.D., at the time of the bishop Saint Ambrose and emperor Theodosius I, the city became the capital of the Western Roman Empire for a short time.After the Ostrogothic and Lombard periods, the city re-gained its importance in the 11th century and led other Italian cities in gaining semi-independence from the Holy Roman Empire. During the Plague of 1349 Milan is one of the few places in Europe that was not touched by the epidemic. During the Renaissance Milan was ruled by dukes of the Visconti and Sforza families, who had artists like Leonardo da Vinci and Bramante at their service. After trying to conquer the rest of northern Italy in the 15th century, Milan was conquered by France, and then by Spain, in the early 16th century.
In the 18th century Austria replaced Spain as Milan's overlord, but after the French revolution and the Napoleonic wars the city became one of the main centres of Italian nationalism, reclaiming independence and the unification of Italy.
In 1859 (after the second of the Italian independence wars) Austrian rule was ended by kingdom of Sardinia (which transformed into kingdom of Italy in 1861).
