ummmmmmmmm..........what did Chicago, IL in the United States give the world............ummmmmmmmmmmmm.........i'll have to come back to y'all on that question!
 
I honestly cant think of anything. My town is very small and was a mining village...one day it will give the world an Evil Lawyer Chick (me 😀)
 
my town/village,Mirfield gave the world.............Patrick Stewart!
 
Here we go..... Southampton, England gave the world the very talented Craig David! He has had a few hits so he should be known i suppose....
 
Well lets see. Dublin (in Ireland) has been around for a while, over a thousand years. So lets start with Jonathan Swift, Brendan Beehan (a great playwrite), Bob Geldof, Phil Lynott (front man of Thin Lizzy), U2.

I would however like to apologise on behalf of Dublin for Boyzone! Sorry about that, you have no idea how much. 🙁
 
My town, New Britain CT, gave the world Tebucky Jones! He plays football for the New England Patriots, and his background is amazing. I met him, and know his brother, and he is really a remarkable man.

On a larger scale, New Britain also gave the world The Stanley Works, a major corporation. We were also a major industry town, and because of this, I live in one of the most diverse towns in my state!

Metro-Detroit, MI gave the world Eminem, Kid Rock, some others. and some really cool cars. I know there's some other famous people, but I can't think of anyone right now...
 
Charleston, SC: We unleashed Hootie & the Blowfish onto the music world. 😛 Um, we also are used for many movies as the settings. [Like the Patriot, O, and others I can't think of]

Oh yeah. And me. You know... when I'm a famous author and all that. 😱

My town is Yarraville, it's in Melbourne, Australia. It's becoming a pretty popular place to film movies, they include:

-Part of Emma Caulfield's film, Don't Peek, was filmed around the corner from me😀
-An Aussie film called the Wog Boy was filmed here
-Lots of commercials have been filmed here
Yarraville is also the childhood home of singer Peter Andre (ok, not neccisarily something to be proud of, lol), and a growing number of Aussie actors are calling Yarraville home, including Eric Bana (Black Hawk Down) and Guy Pearce (he takes his dog to the same vet i do).
