From its early years Erie was an centre of discord between local tribes. Originally inhabited by native tribes, Erie became of interest to the French, British who forced the locals out. At first, they started with cooperation in commerce, but with the time relations grew strained and led to great ownership issues.
Consequently, the Erie region became a location for bloodshed during the war of 1812 and both British and natives were expelled. The turbulence began to calm down in 1860s when new businesses took a hold onto the city. As soon as Erie started growing in term of fishing, an oil boom hit the city and brought huge money there.
In a few years the railroad arrived and immigrants packed the city from its very center to its edges. Today it is ranked as the fourth most inhabited in Pennsylvania with a population of 103,717 people sustained through exports of fish and livestock.
But Erie is far from being a business-oriented city and instead it boasts of a beautiful natural environment and impressive cultural scene. Actually, its name drives at the beauty of the local lake regarded as the main highlight in the area. This natural wonder in Erie even won the name of the Gem City and in 1972 it was given the All-America City Award.
