New York City is the third largest city on Earth and a major center of commerce and galactic wealth. New York is covered by a massive glass dome, which protects it from flooding and other disasters. The city was named by English colonists in the 17th century. However, the Dutch named the island of Manhattan, which has the largest population density of all four boroughs.
