Thunder King

Lin Sen nodded his head as a matter of course, and said with a smile: "That's natural. If the population of a place decreases with time, it is abnormal. In that case, it will decline sooner or later, and it will not It has become an international metropolis. Although Miami is not considered an international metropolis, its reputation is well known to people all over the world. It is really good and not easy for you Hongmen to be able to sit on such a piece of land. .Presumably in the early days of Hongmen's establishment, it must have endured a lot of suffering."

"That's natural. The establishment of any organization was not completed through suffering. Our Hongmen in the United States is the same. At the very beginning, my father actually wanted to go back to China to develop, but China has The existence of the Struggle Club, even if it goes back, will have no effect, and it may be wiped out by the people of the Struggle Club in the end. The Struggle Club is very powerful, and we cannot compare."

The Struggle Club, the most dignified organization of supernatural beings in the world, naturally cannot be compared with Hongmen.Lin Sen didn't know what to say, so he could only continue to listen quietly.

"Before World War II, Miami experienced amazing development: as early as the early nineteenth century, the Miami authorities allowed gambling and were very loose in the control of alcohol prohibition. As a result, thousands of people from the northern United States Immigrants to the Miami area sparked a construction boom that filled previously uninhabited areas with tall buildings. Some of the earliest buildings were knocked down after only a decade of construction to make way for larger buildings. Large numbers of people who moved into the area Construction materials are overloading the transportation system and delaying the construction of many buildings, making this pile of speculative prosperity start to fluctuate. …

From time to time, ships loaded with supplies ran aground, blocking the port.These events gave investors a moment to think.In the end, the serious traffic congestion forced the mayor of Miami to announce that "except for food, all ships carrying construction items are prohibited from entering the port." The "great Miami hurricane" of 1926 ended the bubble.

Then, the Great Depression came, and in the mid-1930s, the Art Deco movement in Miami Beach made Miami develop again.During World War II, the U.S. government took advantage of Miami's strategic location on the nation's East Cape to build bases, supplies, and communications facilities around it.With many servicemen returning to Miami after the war, by 1950 its population had reached 50. "

The more Ni Xiaoni introduces, the more excited she becomes. Does she have the same emotional problem as Hu Longfei?That guy Hu Longfei stopped playing after Lin Sen arrived in Los Angeles, and now Ni Xiaoni started again.But Lin Sen can understand, after all, everyone will be full of gratitude for their own hometown, a beautiful and rich hometown.

If facing a woman he likes, if that woman is interested in K City in Jiangnan Province, Lin Sen will not perform much better than Ni Xiaoni, and he will try to introduce him. . . . . . . . .

Ni Xiaonian continued: "In 1959, the Cuban Revolution drove Fulgencio Battista out of power, Fidel Castro came to power, and a large number of Cuban exiles began to go to Florida. Only in 1965 One year, 100,000 Cubans arrive in Miami from Havana on the twice-daily "freedom flight." Many of the exiles are middle- and upper-class, and their fortunes have shrunk so much that they arrive in the U.S. with little money with them Most of Miami welcomed the Cuban exiles. Most of the exiles lived along the river, so here began a new name "Little Havana".

The area gradually developed into a predominantly Spanish-speaking community, while Spanish speakers elsewhere in the city can use their own language for most everyday tasks. In the 1960s and 1970s, the U.S. Attorney General granted a special permit to Cubans to enter the United States, but not to grant them permanent residence.This dilemma for the Cubans came to a resolution after the promulgation of the "Cuba Situation Act" in 1966.The status law stipulates that any Cuban immigrant who has arrived in the United States since 1959 and has lived in the United States for one year can obtain permanent residency (ie a green card).

The 1980 mariel boatlift, the largest military crossing in history, saw 150,000 Cubans cross to Miami at one time.Unlike those in the 1960s, most of these refugees were poor.Through this smuggling incident, Castro eliminated a large number of criminals and mentally ill patients in the country.During this period, many non-Hispanic whites fled from Miami, often referred to as "white flight."

Ni Xiaoghan was very excited when he said it. Although Lin Sen was very helpless, he still pretended to like it very much. This shit, you can't take away Ni Xiaoghan's excitement!No matter who he is facing, under normal circumstances, Lin Sen can listen well and will not interrupt because of impatience. , this is a rare courtesy.

"In 1960, 90 percent of Miami's population was white, and by 1990, only about 10 percent remained. In the 1980s, Miami began to experience another wave of immigration from other countries such as Haiti. As the Haitian population in the area Growing, a community called "Little Haiti" was born. In the 1990s, Haitian, or Haitian Creole, appeared in public places and on ballot papers during elections. Another large influx of Cuban refugees occurred in 1994 In 1994, the Croatian government announced an important amendment to U.S. law in order to prevent yet another Mariel smuggling incident. In this controversial move, the government announced that Cubans intercepted at sea would not be brought back to the U.S., but Sent to the U.S. military base at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba (or Panama) by the U.S. Coast Guard. Over a period of eight months starting in 30,000, more than 20,000 Palestinians and [-] Haitians were intercepted and sent to the U.S. A camp outside the homeland."

Sticking out her tongue and licking her lips, Ni Xiaoni leaned on Lin Sen's shoulder, looked out the window, and said:

"On September 1994, 9, the United States and Cuba reached an agreement on immigration. The agreement stipulates that the United States will pass laws to place Cuban refugees in safe havens outside the United States, and Cuba will also prevent Cubans from entering the United States by sea. In addition , the United States will issue visas to 9 Cuban refugees per year. On May 20,000, 1995, a second agreement was reached, allowing Cubans living in Guantanamo to enter the United States. At the same time, a direct repatriation of Cubans intercepted at sea was also established. The Cuban regime. In this agreement, the Cuban government undertakes not to retaliate against these deportees.

Since then, Miami has a friendly Latin and Caribbean atmosphere, becoming a popular destination for tourists and immigrants from all over the world and the third largest port of entry for immigrants in the United States after New York and Los Angeles.In addition, Miami has settled in Miami with a large number of immigrant communities from all over the world, including Europe, Africa and Asia.In Miami, most of the European immigrant community are recent immigrants who live in the city seasonally and have relatively modest disposable income.For example, Miami's Italian immigrant community is only about 45,000 people, but it is the wealthiest Italian American community in the United States.

There are currently a large number of legal and illegal Argentines, Bahamians, Barbadians, Brazilians, Colombians, Cubans, Dominicans, Dutch, Ecuadorians, French, Haitians, Jamaicans, Israelis in the Miami area , Italians, Mexicans, Nicaraguans, Peruvians, Russians, Salvadorans, South Africans, Turks, Venezuelans.

Miami is a major city for Spanish and Caribbean immigrants, but the region also has the largest Finnish, French, and South African immigrant communities in the United States, as well as one of the largest Israeli, Russian, and Turkish immigrant communities in the United States.The city of Miami and its suburbs sit on the vast plains between the Florida Everglades and Key Biscayne.The average elevation across the area is 3 feet, with a maximum not exceeding 4.515 feet.

The main part of the city hall is located on the coast of Biscayne Bay, including hundreds of natural or artificial barrier islands, the largest of which has Miami Beach and the famous South Beach area.The islands are considered part of the Florida Keys geologically but have no political relationship.The Gulf Stream (the gulfstream) is a warm ocean current that flows northward about 15 miles off the coast of Miami, making the city's climate warm and mild year-round.Beneath the plains lies the Biscayne Aquifer, an underground river that runs from southern Palm Beach County to Florida Bay, culminating in Miami Springs and Hialeah.Most of the South Florida metropolitan area gets its drinking water from this river.

Due to the existence of the aquifer here, you can't dig down more than 15 to 20 feet in Miami to see water, which also poses a threat to local construction.Much of the west of the city extends into the Florida Everglades, a subtropical swamp in southern Florida, United States.The wildlife that lives here can occasionally cause trouble, such as: the American crocodile (this kind of crocodile does not grow up big, which is basically the type in the local swamp park) and the African crocodile (huge and dangerous, But there are very few in the swamp park), and often appear in the community or on the main road, Miami, like other cities in South Florida, has a warm, humid subtropical climate, and only occasionally encounters cold weather in winter.

It is worth mentioning that Miami is the warmest city in the United States in winter, with an average temperature of 1c in January and 19.5c in July; the average annual precipitation is 7 mm, most of which fall in summer; summer and autumn transactions are hit by hurricanes.The region does not have distinct seasons, instead the year is divided into a wet season and a dry season, with the wet season lasting six months.The dry season is in winter and the wet season usually follows the summer hurricane season.According to official records, the hottest record in Miami was 28.3c on July 1290, 2004, and the humidity in summer often makes the heat index (heatindex) between 7c-17c.Miami's coldest record was -39.4c on February 43, 48, while the metro area's coldest record was -1917c on January 2, 3.On that day, Miami experienced its first snowfall since local weather records began in the 2.8s.The climate here is very good. Many people want to come and settle here for a long time. . . . . . . "

Ni Xiaoti looked at Lin Sen helplessly, which meant that I hope you also come here to settle down.Lin Sen pretended not to see Ni Xiaoni's longing, and kept silent.

Ni Xiaonian was a bit disappointed, but continued to introduce: "The metropolitan area of ​​South Florida, including Miami, Fort Lauderdale and West Palm Beach, is the second largest metropolitan area in the world after Tokyo. Hurricanes are very active in . Hurricane season runs from June 6 to November 1, but there are exceptions. Miami is most likely to experience hurricanes from the end of August to the end of October. According to statistics, Miami is the luckiest in the world The cities that survived the hurricane were followed by Nassau in the Bahamas and Havana in Cuba.

Although many hurricanes have affected the city, including Hurricane Cleo in 1964, Hurricane Betsy in 1965, Hurricane Andrew in 1992, and Hurricane Irene in 1999 and Hurricanes Katrina and Wilma in 2005, but luckily Miami hasn't been directly hit by a hurricane since Hurricane King in 1950.Separately, a tropical depression passed Miami in 2000, bringing record rainfall and flooding. "

After talking so much in one breath, Ni Xiaoni didn't feel tired, but Lin Sen was really tired after listening to it! !This shit, can it not be so long, will it die if it is divided into paragraphs?

"In Miami, there are many famous universities, such as Nova Southeastern University, Barry University, Johnson and Wales University, Miami International University of Art and Design, University of Miami, the latest usnews ranked 44th Florida International University, Miami-Dade College, St.Thomas University, etc...

There are also many famous high schools, such as Belen Jesuit Preparatory School, Christopher Columbus High School, Coral Reef High School, Design and Architecture Senior High School, and Gulliver Preparatory School in Lhasa Lasalle High School, Mastacademy High School, Miami High School, Miami Palmetto Senior High School, New World School of the Arts, William Turner Technical High School, etc. . "

Ni Xiaonian, Ni Xiaonian, you are really nagging and make my brother feel helpless!I can't understand what you said!
