Description	Content
Article description: (`description`) This attribute controls the content of the `description` and `og:description` elements.	Chicago, Illinois: incorporated in 1837. The name comes from the Algonquian word shikaakwa, or "wild onion"[1]. We shit you not: it was what was growing in the swampland that was perfectly situated for continental-scale commerce. It's the third most populous city in the United States and a fabled fortress of jazz, organized crime, Michael Jordan, Daaaaaa Bearsss, the 1893 World's Fair, deep-dish pizza, Frank Lloyd Wright, house music, improvisational theatre, two baseball teams known for perennial mediocrity which fiercely battle for the city's love/scorn, skyscrapers, revolving doors, a very pleasant lakefront, very unpleasant winters, its country's first non-white president, and a certain roughneck Midwestern charm. Its nickname of "The Windy City" comes from the Lake Michigan breezes that rattle around the skyscrapers, but wisecrackers will tell you it's from boastful windbag politicians. Aside from that, the city had a massive fire in 1871, widely suspected in Urban Legend of having been started by a cow, which leveled much of the city and killed 200-300 people. [2]
