？？维也纳不就是首都么？奥地利的。难道维也纳独立了？The capital and largest city of Austria, in the northeast part of the country on the Danube River. Originally a Celtic settlement, it became the official residence of the house of Hapsburg in 1278 and a leading cultural center in the 18th century, particularly under the reign (1740-1780) of Maria Theresa. Vienna was designated the capital of Austria in 1918. Population, 1,524,510.

Vienna is the capital of the Republic of Austria. It is the country's largest city and seat of many international organisations (official UN seat, OSCE headquarters). Its 1.67 million inhabitants live on an area of 414 square kilometres. Vienna has a special position in Austria, as it is both a city and a federal province. The role of Vienna's mayor is also as governor of the province, while the City Council also acts as a Provincial Parliament. According to the provisions of the federal constitution, the municipal structure of the City of Vienna is composed of the City Council, the City Senate and the Mayor. The City Administration (Magistrat) administers the city. The City Council consists of 100 members and constitutes the city's highest official body. Vienna has a multi-faceted cultural life. It offers a choice of 70 theatres, four opera houses, two stages for musicals, 100 museums and numerous theatre, music and dance festivals. As if this weren't enough, there's also the Museumsquartier with its Baroque façade and which is home to one of the biggest cultural districts in Europe. With its worldwide reputation as a city of music, Vienna's first-class orchestras and ensembles give the city its seal of excellence. Alongside contemporary music, classical music continues to play a vital role, as is made evident by the Vienna Philharmonic, the City of Vienna Concert Orchestra, the Vienna Symphony Orchestra and many others. The Vienna Academy, the Vienna Chamber Orchestra and the Women's Chamber Orchestra are dedicated to traditional and modern music alike. The regular appearance of international artists and ensembles on Vienna stages compliment the city's cultural life. During the summer months the Vienna Film Festival on Rathausplatz in front of the City Hall attracts music lovers from all corners of the world. The City Hall provides a perfect backdrop for classical music performances, and the various food stalls dish up an excellent international culinary experience. Apart from the federal theatres and the Vereinigte Bühnen many small, private theatres exist in Vienna. Numerous theatre ensembles perform in old factory buildings or on public squares. A theatre for young people between two and 20 was established in the Museumsquartier.Vienna has an openly accessible education system, which seeks to maximise the promotion of all talents and professions. The main objectives of the system continue to be equal opportunities and minimising the barriers to education opportunities: the system's fundamental principle is to foster and support, not to select.This fostering and support starts at preschool age. The city's day-care centres and private institutions offer child-care for more than 67,000 children. All compulsory schools in Vienna are equipped with computers and are linked to the Vienna education network via the Internet. The Vienna education server supplies all of these schools with valuable teaching material. Digital versions are available for all users free of charge.Vienna is a major university city and has nine public and seven private universities. The City of Vienna has launched several initiatives to further expand this knowledge basis: there are eight science promotion funds, grant programmes and application-related knowledge and science funding available. Young scientists, among other young professionals are promoted, by the science section of Municipal Department Cultural Affairs (MA 7), the Vienna Science, Research and Technology Fund (WWTF), the Science Centre Vienna (Wissenschaftszentrum Wien), the centre for innovation and technology (Zentrum für Innovation und Technologie - ZIT) and the society depARTure.Environmentally, Vienna is a model city as it meets all the relevant criteria applying for instance to water supply and waste water management, waste disposal, clean air management and the city’s overall ecological balance. One third of Vienna’s entire urban area is made up of conservation areas, protected landscapes, a national park and similar protection initiatives.Vienna ranks among the cities with the best quality of life not least because of its good air quality. In order to uphold the high standard, the project "Urbane Luft Initiative - Wien (ULI)" (Urban Air Initiative – Vienna) has a clear focus on reducing the air’s fine dust load and the concentration in nitric oxides.The so called EcoBusiness Plan, an Environmental Service Package for companies provided by the City of Vienna, aims to help companies generate greater efficiency through ecological and sustainable management practices and achieve financial benefits. Since 1996 Vienna has been actively promoting and implementing Ecological Management Systems on the communal level.The programme PUMA aims for the City of Vienna to be even more environmentally friendly in the fields of energy consumption, waste management and procurement.Settlements along the Danube near what is now the City of Vienna can be traced back to the 5th century B.C. These were of Celtic origin - as is the name Wien, derived from the Celtic "Vedunia" meaning "river in the woods". The Romans established the garrison camp Vindobona in the 1st century AD. Remainders of the Roman camp can be seen at Hoher Markt and at the underground station Stephansplatz. Vienna began its rise in importance in the Middle Ages when it was made the residence of the Babenbergs and the city walls were raised in 1200. Vienna would become the capital of the Habsburg Empire and remain so for almost seven centuries. Today its imperial past is still visible in monumental structures such as the Imperial Palace (Hofburg), the Schönbrunn Palace, the buildings along Ringstraße, and many other sites throughout the city. The fall of the monarchy proved a turning point in Vienna's history. In 1922, the city was made a province in its own right. The Social Democrats then in power pursued comprehensive social policies. By 1933 more than 60,000 new and affordable apartments had been built. The achievements of the "rotes Wien" (Red Vienna) in the social field found international recognition. In 1938 Austria was "annexed" to Hitler Germany and ceased to exist as a state. Most of Vienna's Jewish population was driven away or exterminated. After the end of the Second World War and many years of Allied occupation, Austria regained its independence with the state treaty signed in 1955. Unperturbed by the nearby existing Iron Curtain, Vienna continued to build on its international role during the Cold War years. It became a UN seat and was chosen as headquarters for the OSCE.

Vienna is the capital of Austria, and is also one of the nine states of Austria. Vienna is Austria's primary city; with a population of about 1.7 million (2.3 million within the metropolitan area), it is by far the largest city in Austria as well as its cultural, economic, and political center. It is the 10th largest city by population in the European Union and was listed by Mercer Human Resource Consulting as having the 2nd highest quality of living (as of 2008)[citation needed]. Vienna is host to many major international organizations such as the United Nations and OPEC. Vienna lies in the very east of Austria and is close to the Czech Republic, Slovakia and Hungary. In 2001, the city centre was designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site and in 2005 an Economist Intelligence Unit study of 127 world cities ranked it first equal with Vancouver for the quality of life.

Vienna City (pop., 2001: 1,550,123; metro. area, 1,825,287), capital of Austria. Located on the Danube River, it was founded by the Celts; it became a Roman military station in the 1st century BC. Ruled by many including the Franks in the 6th century AD and the Magyars in the 10th century Vienna was an important trade centre during the Crusades. It was the seat of the Holy Roman Empire (1558–1806), of the Austrian (and Habsburg) Empire (1806–67), and of the Austro-Hungarian Empire until 1918. In 1814–15 it was the seat of the Congress of Vienna. The administrative centre of German Austria (1938–45), it was frequently bombed during World War II by the Allies, and the city was taken by Soviet troops in 1945. It was under joint Soviet-Western Allied occupation from 1945 to 1955. The Strategic Arms Limitation Talks (SALT) between the U.S. and Soviet Union took place in Vienna in the 1970s. The commercial and industrial centre of Austria, it also is a cultural centre renowned for its architecture and music. It was the birthplace of the composers Franz Schubert, Johann Strauss (the Younger), and Arnold Schoenberg, and the home of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, Ludwig van Beethoven, Johannes Brahms, and Gustav Mahler.

音乐之都The Austrian capital of Vienna (Wien), with a population of more than 1.6 million, is a city forever implanted into the international imagination as a dreamy place of cream-filled pastries(奶油馅饼) and angelic choir boys, of prancing white horses and swirling Strauss waltzes. It is a city where legend overrules reality -- the Danube River(多瑙河), which flows through Vienna, may not be true blue, yet, the "Blue Danube" waltz(蓝色多瑙河华尔兹) has permanently painted the waterway that hue in the mind's eye. The imperial seat of the Habsburg court since the 17th century, Vienna was one of the world's most powerful cities, both culturally and politically, until World War I, when the dissolution of the Austro-Hungarian Empire(奥匈帝国) left it humbled by the redefinition of Europe's political structure. Despite having the power plug pulled, the city has retained its cultural cache(文化蕴藏地). Music is the soul of Vienna -- the great composers of Europe, from Mozart to Beethoven, Haydn to Schubert, Strauss to Mahler, called the city home. And at every opportunity, from the grand Opera Ball to the smallest of musical gatherings, Viennese swoon(陶醉) together in the city's famously romantic waltz. Or they gather for dramatic musical stagings(上演的节目) at the Staatsopera (State Opera House), one of the world's great opera venues.Vienna celebrates its well-composed heritage with numerous festivals and concerts, as well as well-preserved landmarks such as Schubert's birthplace and the homes of Mozart and Beethoven. Another noteworthy Viennese note-taker, Sigmund Freud, is honored at a museum devoted to his life and work as the father of psychotherapy(精神疗法, 心理疗法)Art and architecture are also Viennese trademarks, and with 90 museums, many devoted to art, the city is awash in great works. Art Nouveau (known locally as "Jungendstil," or Young Style) took hold here, born of the Vienna Secession which straddled(跨越,横跨) the turn of the 20th century. The movement's most famous member was Viennese painter Gustav Klimt, and his work, as well as that of other secessionists, is showcased at the Secession Pavilion, designed by Josef Maria Olbrich. Vienna's most famous art museum, however, is the Kunsthistorisches, housing works by such greats as the Dutch master Pieter Brueghel the Elder.As for Vienna's other cultural icons, they still thrive: from the Spanish Riding School, home of the world-famous, high-stepping Royal Lipizzaner Stallions, to the dulcet-toned Vienna Boy's Choir(维也纳男童合唱团), which tours the globe when not singing morning mass at the Hofburgkapelle during the summer months.
