Vienna is the federal capital of the Republic of Austria and at the same time one of the nine Austrian federal states. With around 1.9 million inhabitants (around a fifth of the total Austrian population), Vienna, located on the Danube, is the most populous city in Austria. Around 2.8 million people live in the greater Vienna area - this corresponds to around a third of the total Austrian population. In terms of architecture, Vienna is still characterized by the buildings around Vienna's Ringstrasse, but also by Baroque and Art Nouveau. Due to its former role as the imperial capital and residence of the Austrian Empire, Vienna became a cultural and political center of Europe. Around 1910, when Vienna was still the capital of the Habsburg Monarchy, the city had over two million inhabitants. The historic center of Vienna and Schönbrunn Palace are now UNESCO World Heritage Sites. Vienna is one of the most visited cities in Europe. At the Congress of Vienna in 1814/15, the city played an important role in international diplomacy, which it has maintained to the present day. As an international congress and conference venue, Vienna is now home to over 30 international organizations, including the OPEC oil cartel, the IAEA, the international atomic energy agency and the OSCE, making it one of the world's cities. The United Nations Office in Vienna (UNOV) houses one of the four official seats of the UN in the Vienna International Center (VIC), commonly referred to as the UN City. Particularly famous landmarks are St. Stephen's Cathedral and the Vienna Riesenrad.
