Las Vegas (often informally abbreviated to "Vegas") is the most populous city in the state of Nevada, United States, the seat of Clark County, and an internationally known vacation, shopping, entertainment, and gambling destination. It was established in 1905 and officially became a city in 1911. It is the largest U.S. city founded in the 20th century.
Las Vegas is the largest city in the state of Nevada, and is an internationally known vacation, shopping, entertainment, and gambling destination; highly popularized by its legalized gambling, lack of time restrictions on alcohol purchases, and abundance of adult entertainment.


Hotels and casinos, such as the fictional [[Montecito]] and [[Corinthian]] are the largest businesses in Las Vegas, and also employ the most people in Las Vegas for jobs such as [[Hope|dancers]], [[Roulette dealer|game dealers]], and many [[Linderman's guard|security guards]].
The name Las Vegas is often applied to the unincorporated areas of Clark County that surround the city, especially the resort areas on and near the Las Vegas Strip. This 4½ mi (7.2 km) stretch of Las Vegas Boulevard is mostly outside the Las Vegas city limits, in the unincorporated towns of Paradise and Winchester.

The center of gambling in the United States, Las Vegas is marketed as The Entertainment Capital of the World, also commonly known as Sin City or Vice City, due to the popularity of legalized gambling, availability of alcoholic beverages at any time (as is true throughout Nevada), and various forms and degrees of adult entertainment. The city's glamorous image has made it a popular setting for films and television programs.
