==Economic history==
Milan was, in the late 12th century, a wealthy and industrious city, as the production of armours and wool, led the Lombard town to become rich. During the Renaissance, along with Venice, Rome and Florence, in the making of luxury goods, textiles, hats and fabrics, and the city cultivated such as reputation that the English word "''millinery''", referring to women's hats in the 19th century, came from the word "Milan". Towards the late 19th and early 20th centuries, Milan became a major European industrial centre for the automotive industry, chemicals, textiles, tools, heavy machinery and book and music publishing, with companies such as Alfa Romeo opening up. After the city's World War II bombings and the opening of the Milan (camp) for refugees, the city witnessed an "economic miracle", with new buildings being built (such as the Pirelli Tower), more industries opening up and many immigrants from Southern Italy and China immigrating to the city. The city experienced a strong flow of immigrants, and became a major international and cosmopolitan centre for expatriate employees. A study showed that by the late-1990s, more than 10% of the city's workers were foreigners.〔http://expo-magazine.com/inside.asp?p=566}〕 In January 2008, according to ISTAT statistics, it was estimated that 181,393 foreign-born immigrants lived in the city, representing 13.9% of the total population.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Statistiche demografiche ISTAT )〕
