Reykjavík (Icelandic pronunciation: [ˈreiːcaˌviːk]) is the capital and largest city in Iceland. Its latitude, at 64°08' N, makes it the world northernmost capital of a sovereign state. It is located in southwestern Iceland, on the southern shore of Faxaflói Bay as you can see in the Capital of Iceland map. With a population of around 120,000 (and over 200,000 in the Greater Reykjavík Area), it is the heart of Iceland economic and governmental activity. Reykjavík is believed to be the location of the first permanent settlement in Iceland, which Ingólfur Arnarson is said to have established around 870 C.E. Until the 18th century, there was no urban development in the city location. The city was founded in 1786 as an official trading town and grew steadily over the next decades, as it transformed into a regional and later national centre of commerce, population, and governmental activities.

The City Council governs the city of Reykjavík according to law number 45/1998 and is directly elected by those aged over 18 domiciled in the city as its mentioned in the Capital of Iceland map. The council has 15 members who are elected using the open list method for 4 year terms. The council selects members of boards, and each board controls a different field under the city council authority. The most important board is the City Board that wields the executive rights along with the City Mayor. The City Mayor is the senior public official and also the director of city operations. Other public officials control city institutions under the mayor authority. The Independence Party had overall control of the city council from the party establishment in 1929 until 1978, when they narrowly lost their overall majority. From 1978 to 1982 the People Alliance, the Social Democratic Party and the Progressive Party formed the majority of the council.

Reykjavík is the largest and most populous settlement in Iceland. Present-day Reykjavík is a multicultural city with people from at least 100 countries as its shown in the Capital of Iceland map. The most common ethnic minorities are Poles, Filipinos, and Danes. In 2009, foreign-born individuals made up 8% of the total population. Children of foreign origin form a more considerable minority in the city schools (as much as a third in places); many of whom are adopted. Although in addition to immigrant inhabitants, the city is visited by thousands of tourists, students and other temporary residents weekly, at times outnumbering natives in the city-centre; tending to be educated upper middle-class Scandinavians, Europeans, North Americans, or Japanese. Reykjavík is divided into 10 districts.
