'''New Amsterdam''' ([[Amerikaens]]: ''Nieuw Amsterdam'', Lenappi: ''Mannahata''), abbreviated as '''NAMS''', affectionately nicknamed '''Knickerbock''', and often going by the moniker '''the Green City''' (''De Grüne Metropöl''), is the capital and largest city of [[New Netherland]]. One of the oldest cities in America, it is considered as a pre-eminent world city. It is recognised as a cultural melting pot, incorporating traits derieved from its large Dutch, Palatine, French, Arab, and African populations. Organisations such as [[Jonkman Enterprises|Jonkman Corporation]] and the [[Organisatie der verenigde landen|OVL]] are headquartered in the city. New Amsterdam is a hub of fashion, philosophy, music, and cuisine.
