Coventry, England

Coventry Pop: 333,001

Arising from the West Midlands Coventry enjoys the dubious distinction of being further from a coast than any other city in the UK.

The practice of establishing sister cities, or twinning, was first begun when Coventry twinned with Saint-Etienne, France in 1955. It has since twinned, among others, with Cork, Ireland and other Coventry's in New York, Rhode Island, and Connecticut, USA.
