Liège

Liège ((:ljɛʒ); (オランダ語:Luik), ; (ドイツ語:Lüttich); is a major city and a municipality in Belgium. It is located in the province of the same name, Liège, of which it is the main city and is part of the Walloon (mostly French-speaking) region of Belgium.
The city is situated in the valley of the Meuse River, in the east of Belgium, not far from borders with the Netherlands and with Germany. At Liège the Meuse river meets the river Ourthe. The city is part of the ''sillon industriel'', the former industrial backbone of Wallonia. It still is the principal economic and cultural centre of the region.
The Liège municipality (i.e. the city proper) includes the former communes of Angleur, Bressoux, Chênée, Glain, Grivegnée, Jupille-sur-Meuse, Rocourt, and Wandre. In November 2012, Liège had 198,280 inhabitants. The metropolitan area, including the outer commuter zone, covers an area of 1,879 km2 (725 sq mi) and had a total population of 749,110 on 1 January 2008.〔(Statistics Belgium; ''Population de droit par commune au 1 janvier 2008'' (excel-file) ) Population of all municipalities in Belgium on 1 January 2008. Retrieved on 2008-10-19.〕〔(Statistics Belgium; ''De Belgische Stadsgewesten 2001'' (pdf-file) ) Definitions of metropolitan areas in Belgium. The metropolitan area of Liège is divided into three levels. First, the central agglomeration (''agglomeratie'') with 480,513 inhabitants (2008-01-01). Adding the closest surroundings (''banlieue'') gives a total of 641,591. And, including the outer commuter zone (''forensenwoonzone'') the population is 749,110. Retrieved on 2008-10-19.〕 This includes a total of 52 municipalities, among others, Herstal and Seraing. Liège ranks as the third most populous urban area in Belgium, after Brussels and Antwerp, and the fourth municipality after Antwerp, Ghent and Charleroi.〔
==Etymology==

The name is Germanic in origin and is reconstructible as
*''liudik-'', from the Germanic word
*''liudiz'' "people", which is found in for example Dutch ''lui(den)'', ''lieden'', German ''Leute'', Old English ''lēod'' (English ''lede'') and Icelandic ''lýður'' ("people"). It is found in Latin as ''Leodicum'' or ''Leodium'', in Middle Dutch as ''ludic'' or ''ludeke''.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Ludike - Vroegmiddelnederlands woordenboek )
Until 17 September 1946〔''The Book Collector''. Vol. 8 (1959), p. 10.〕〔Room, Adrian. 2006. ''Placenames of the World''. 2nd ed. Jefferson, NC: McFarland & Co., p. 219.〕〔"Liège". 1991. ''Encyclopaedia Britannica: Micropædia''. Vol. 7. Chicago: Encyclopaedia Britannica, p. 344.〕 the city's name was written フランス語:''Liége'', with the acute accent instead of a grave accent.
In French the city has the epithet ''la cité ardente'' (''the fervent city'').
