Pittsburgh is the second-largest city in
Pennsylvania, United States, and the county seat of Allegheny
County, Pennsylvania. Pittsburgh is located on the Allegheny
Plateau, where the confluence of the Allegheny River and Monongahela
River form the Ohio River. The area between the rivers is known as
the Golden Triangle, the extremity of which is The Point. In the
19th and 20th centuries, wealthy businessmen and nonprofit
organizations donated millions to create educational and cultural
institutions. As a result, Pittsburgh is rich in art and culture.
Pittsburgh's dedication to sports has a long history. Pittsburgh has
been called the "city of champions" for its success in sports. On
