The United States of America is a country in North America that extends from the Atlantic Ocean to the Pacific Ocean and shares land borders with Canada and Mexico. The United States is a federal constitutional republic, with its capital in Washington, D.C., District of Columbia.

Dayton is a city in southwestern Ohio, United States. It is the county seat and largest city of Montgomery County. As of the 2005 census estimate, the population of Dayton was 158,873. The Dayton metropolitan area, which includes the communities of Vandalia, Trotwood, Kettering, Centerville, Beavercreek, West Carrollton, Huber Heights, Troy, and Miamisburg, had a population of 843,577 as of the 2005 estimate. Dayton is situated within the Miami Valley region of Ohio, just north of the Cincinnati metropolitan area. The total area of city was 146.7 square kilometers and its population density was 1,083 per square kilometers.
 
Dayton plays host to significant industrial, aerospace, and technological and engineering research activity and is known for the many technical innovations and inventions developed there. The city was the home of the Wright brothers, poet Paul Laurence Dunbar, and entrepreneur John H. Patterson. Dayton was founded on April 1, 1796 by a small group of US settlers seven years before the admission of Ohio to the Union in 1803. The town was incorporated in 1805 and given its name after Jonathan Dayton, a captain in the American Revolutionary War and signer of the U.S. Constitution.
 
Dayton's primary nickname is the Gem City. The origin of the name is no longer clear; it appears to stem either from a well-known racehorse named Gem that hailed from Dayton, or from descriptions of the city likening it to a gem. The city was advertised as The Gem City, the Cleanest City in America in the 1950's, 60's and into the 70's.
 
Dayton is home to the Dayton Art Institute, a museum of fine arts. The National Museum of the United States Air Force is at nearby Wright-Patterson Air Force Base. Dayton is home to two major universities are the University of Dayton, a private, Catholic institution founded in 1850 by the Marianist order, and the public Wright State University, which became a state university in 1967.

As it is often regarded as among the most beautiful parts of United States one of the most visited places amongst the most die-hard travelers the world over.
