The seven islands that enter the Mumbai region are home to the fishing colony. For centuries, the islands were under indigenous empire rule before falling into the hands of the Portuguese and then into the hands of the British East India Company when in 1661 King Charles II was married to the Yekaterina of Braganza, and as part of its longtime host, Charles was given Tangier and seven islands in Bombay. In the mid-18th century, Bombay, was recreated by the Hornby Vellard project, which was held to reclamate the region between the seven islands from the sea. Along with the construction of the roads and the railways, the land reclamation, completed in 1845, transformed Bombay into a major port in the Arabian Sea. Bombay in the 19th century was characterized by economic development and education. In the early 20th century, the city was a sturdy base for India's independence movement. After India's independence in 1947, the city was included in the State of Bombay. In 1960, after the Samyukta Maharashtra Movement, a new state of Maharashtra was created with Bombay as its capital.
Mumbai is the capital of finance, commercial and entertainment in India. It was also one of the top ten commercial hubs of the world in terms of global financial flows, covering 6.16% of India's GDP and covering 25% of industrial spending, 70% of the maritime trade in India (Mumbai and JNPT), and 70% of the capital's transactions for India's economy. It contains influential financial institutions such as the Reserve Bank of India, the Bombay Stock Exchange, the Indian National Stock Exchange, SEBI and headquarters of a number of Indian companies and multinational companies. The city is also home to some of India's main nuclear and scientific agencies such as BARC, NPCL, IREL, TIFR, AERB, AECI and the Atomic Energy Department. The city also houses Indian film and television industries Marathi and Hindi (Bollywood). The Mumbai business opportunity, and its potential offer high living standards, attracting migrant workers from across India, has forced the city to unleash the melting of several communities and cultures.
Etymology
The name Mumbai comes from Mumbā or Mahā-Ambā—name of the patron goddess (Kuladewi) Mumbadewi of the Agri, Koli and Somwanshi Kshatriya — and View's means "mother" in Marathi, which is Mahartra's and Mahartra's official language.

The oldest known name for the city was Kakamuchee and Galajunkja; these words are sometimes still used. Ali Muhammad Khan, in Mirat-i-Ahmedi (1507) called the city Manbai. In 1508, Portuguese author Gaspar Correia used the name Bombaim, in her work Lendas da Índia ("Indian Legends"). The name is believed to come from the Old Portuguese phrase of the baim bomb, which means "nice little gulf" and Bombaim is still common in Portuguese. In 1516, Portuguese explorer Duarte Barbosa uses the name Tana-Maiambu: Tana shows up to refer to the combined Thane and Maiambu cities for Mumbadevi.
Other variations recorded in the 16th and 17th centuries included: Mombayn (1525), Bombay (1538), Bombain (1552), Bombaym (1552), Monbaym (1554), Mombaim (1563), Monbaym (164), Mombam (156) 4), RunBambaye (1666),Bombaiim (1666),Bombeye (1676), Boon Bay (1690) and Bon Bahia. After Britain seized power over the city in the 17th century, the Portuguese name was officially demolished to Bombay.
In the late 20th century, the city was called Mumbai or Mambai in official state-level languages of India that include Marathi, Konkani, Gujarati, Kannada and Sindhi, and as Bambaiin Hindi. The Indian government officially changed its British name to Mumbai in November 1995. The policy comes from the proposed nationalist party Marathi Shiv Sena, who won the Maharashtra state election, reflects similar names across the country and most of Maharashtra. According to Slate magazine, "they contend that 'Bombay' is a British version torn up of 'Mumbai' and an undesirable legacy of the British colonial government." Slate also said that "the drive to rename Bombay is part of a bigger movement to strengthen the identity of Marathi in Maharashtra region." Although the city remains being called Bombay by some of its citizens and by Indians from other regions, the city's mentions with a name other than Mumbai have become controversial, produced in an emotional state sometimes generated by a nature of political violence.
The people of Mumbai are called mumbai in Marathi, where the end of the rigid means people. The term was used several times but has just gained fame after his official name was changed to Mumbai.
History
Early history

Mumbai has built on what once became an archipelago of seven islands: Bombay, Parel, Mazagaon, Mahim, Colaba, Worli, and the Isle of Old Women (also known as Little Colaba). It is not known when the islands began to occupy. The Pleistocene sediments found along the coastal area around Kandivali, north of Mumbai have shown that the islands have been lived since the Stone Age. At the beginning of the Christian Age (2,000 years ago), or perhaps earlier, the region was occupied by the fisheries community of Koli.
In the third century BC, the islands were included as part of the Maurya Empire, in its export to the southern region, ruled by the Buddhist emperor, Asoka of Magadha. The Kanheri Caves in Borivali were evacuated in the middle of the third century BC, and served as a crucial center of Buddhism in Western India during ancient times. It was called Heptanesia (Ancient Greek): Seven Islands) by Greek geographer Ptolemaeus on 150 AD. The expensive cave in Andheri was built between the 1st century BC and the 6th century M.
Between the second century BC and the ninth century M, the islands were under the indigenous dynasty were successive: Satawahana, West Kshatrapa, Abhira, Kalachuri, Konkan Maurya, Chalukya and Rashtrakuta, before being controlled by the Silhara dynasty from 810 to 1260. Some of the oldest historic buildings in the city built during the period were, Jogeshwari Caves (between 520 and 525), Elephanta Caves (between sixth and seventh centuries), Walkeshwar Kuil (10th century) and Banganga Water Shelter (12th century).
King Bhimdev founded his kingdom in the region at the end of the 13th century and founded his capital in Mahikawati (now Mahim). Pathare Prabhu, one of the earliest known settlers in the city, was sent to Mahikawati of Saurashtra in Gujarat around 1298 by Bhimdev. Delhi's Sultanate anattached the islands to 1347-48 and seized them to 1407. At the time, the islands were governed by Muslim Governor Gujarat, who was appointed by Delhi's Sultanate.
The islands were then ruled by the independent Gujarat Sultanate, established in 1407. The sultanate has led to construction of several mosques, which are known to be Haji Ali Dargah in Worli, which was built to honor the Muslim holy woman Haji Ali in 1431. From 1429 to 1431, the islands were a source of a struggle between Gujarat Sultanate and Bahamani's Sultanate from Deccan. In 1493, Baha Khan Gilani of the Bahamani Sultanate tried to conquer the islands but lost.
Portuguese and English rule

The Mughal Empire, formed in 1526, was a force dominan on the Indian subcontinent in the mid 16th century. Upheaval concerns on Mughal Humayun's power have allowed Sultan Baha Shah of the Sultanate of Gujarat decided to sign a Bassein Treaty with the Portuguese Empire on December 23, 1534. Seven islands in Bombay, the closest strategic city of Bassein and his depetations are given to the Portuguese. The Territorial was then distributed on October 25, 1535.
The Portuguese was active in the creation and growth of their Roman Catholic orders in Bombay. They called the islands in various names, which eventually took the form of Bombaim writing. The islands were contained by several Portuguese officers during their rezantine. The Portuguese franchise and Jesuit built several churches in the city, notorious for Saint Michael's Church in Mahim (1534), St. John the Baptist Church in Andheri (1579), Saint Andreas Church in Bandra (1580), and his Glor Church in Byculla (1632). The Portuguese also built several citations around the city such as the Bombay, Castella de Aguada (Castelo and Aguada or Benteng Bandra) and the Madh Fort. The British are constantly struggling against the Portuguese on the hegemony of Bombay, as they recognize its strategic natural port and its natural isolation from ground attacks. By the mid-17th century, the growth of the Dutch Empire's forces forced Britain to acquire a station in western India. On May 11, 1661, the marriage treaty of Charles II of Britain and the Yekaterina of Braganza, daughter of King John IV of Portugal, made the islands into parts of the British Empire as part of the Yekaterina crown to Charles. However, Salsette, Bassein, Mazagaon, Parel, Worli, Sion, Dharavi and Wadala remain in Portuguese rule. From 1665 to 1666, Britain decided to acquire Mahim, Sion, Dharavi and Wadala.

Regarding the Royal Charter of March 27, 1668, Britain rented them to British East India Company in 1668 with a £10-a-year bill. The population grew from 10,000 in 1661 to 60,000 in 1675. The islands were attacked by Yakut Khan, admiral Siddi of the Mughal Empire, in October 1672, Rickloffe van Goen, the Governor-General of the Dutch East Indies on February 20, 1673, and the Siddi Sambal admiral on October 10, 1673.
In 1687, the British East India Company moved its headquarters from Surat to Bombay. The city was then the headquarters of the presidential institute Bombay. After the move, Bombay was placed as head of all branches of the Company in India. Until the end of the 17th century, it had regained its attack from Yakut Khan in 1689-90. The Portuguese power came to Bombay when Maratha's men under the hwa Baji Rao I took down Salsette in 1737 and Bassein in 1739. By the mid-18th century, Bombay began growing into a big trading city, reaching a large number of migrants from all over India. Then, the British occupied Salsette on December 28, 1774. With the Letter Treaty (1775), Britain is officially in control of Salsette and Bassein, which led to the First Anglo-Maratha War. Britain can secure Salsette from Maratha's nonviolent force through the Purandar Treaty (1776), and then through the Salbai Treaty (1782), was signed to determine the outcome of the First Anglo-Maratha War.

From 1782 and so on, the city was reshuffled by large-scale civil engineering projects in order to combine seven islands into a single land. The project, known as Hornby Vellard, was completed in 1784. In 1817, the British East India Company, under the head of Mountstuart Elphinstone, defeated Baji Rao II, hwa Maratha's last Pestilence in the Battle of Khadki. After his defeat, almost all Deccan regions were under British sovereignty, and included in the Bombay presidential office. The success of the British campaign in Deccan marked the release of Bombay from all attacks by indigenous forces.
In 1845, the seven islands had been joined into a single land by the Hornby Vellard project through large-scale reclamation of laps. On April 16, 1853, the first passenger train line in India was established, connecting Bombay to the neighboring Thana (now Thane) city. In the American Civil War (1861-1865), the city became the world's leading cottonseed trade market, causing economic explosions that then increased living standards in the city.
Suez Canal bukaan in 1869 made Bombay one of the largest ports in the Arabian Sea. In September 1896, Bombay was attacked by a bubonic bubonic bubonic plague that killed about 1,900 people a week. About 850,000 people left in Bombay and the textile industry was affected. As the capital of the presidential office of Bombay, the city witnessed India's independence movement, with the Indian Outbound Movement in 1942 and the 1946 Attacks of the Royal Indian Navy becoming its most famous event.
Independent India

After India's independence in 1947, the presidential territorial Bombay was retained by India to be restructured into the State of Bombay. The increasing region of Bombay State after several kingdom regions joined the Indian union were integrated into the state. The city became the capital of Bombay State. In April 1950, the municipal boundary of Bombay was expanded by combining the Suburban District of Bombay and Bombay City to form a Big Bombay Munisipal Company.
The Samyukta Maharashtra movement to create a separate Maharashtra state that includes Bombay peaks in the 1950s. During the 1955 Lok Sabha discussion, the Congress party said the city was made into an autonomous country. The State Reorganization Committee recommended a dual-language state for Maharashtra-Gujarat with Bombay as its capital in its 1955 report. Bombay Citizenship Committee, an okasi advisory group leading the industrialist Gujarati supported the independent status of Bombay.
Following protests in the movement in which 105 was killed in clashes with police, the State of Bombay was reorganized based on a linguistic line on May 1, 1960. Gujarati-language region of the State of Bombay was split into the state of Gujarat. The state of Maharashtra with Bombay as its capital was formed by a merger of Marathi from the State of Bombay, eight districts of Central and Berar provinces, five districts of Hyderabad's State and a number of kingdom regions adjacent to the region. In memory of the martyrs of the Samyukta Maharashtra movement, Flora Fountain was renamed Hutatma Chowk (Martyr Square), and a monument was established.

In the next few decades, massive expansion was taking place in the city and its sub-urban areas. In the late 1960s, Nariman Point and Cuffe Parade direk slow and developed. The Mumbai Metropolitan Area Development Authority was established Jan. 26, 1975, by Maharashtra government as a planning and coordinating development activity in the Bombay metropolitan area. In August 1979, a municipality saudari New Bombay was formed by the Industrial and Urban Development Company along Thane district and the Raigad district to help control the population in Bombay. Textile industry in Bombay was largely lost after the outbreak of the 1982 Big Bombay Textile Attack, with around 250,000 workers at more than 50 textile factories involved. The Mumbai cottage plants that have been disbanded since have focused on intense redevelopment.
The port of Jawaharlal Nehru, now 55-60% of cargo container in India, was opened on May 26, 1989 along the river in Nhava Sheva with a view of the Port of Bombay and served as a port center for the city. The Great Bombay geography boundaries are aligned with the Great Bombay Municipal border. On 1 October 1, 1990, the large Bombay district was created to form two districts named Bombay City and Suburban Bombay, although they were kept in charge of the same Munisipal Administration.
From 1990 to 2010, violence has escalated in the very peaceful city. After the destruction of Babri Mosque in Ayodhya, the city was ravaged by the 1992-93 Hindu-Muslim riot where more than 1,000 people were killed. On March 12, 1993, a series of 13 planned bombings in several area towns by Islamic extremists and the underground Mumbai subway resulted in 257 deaths and more than 700 people injured. In 2006, 209 people were killed and more than 700 wounded when seven bombs exploded on commuter trains in the city. In 2008, a series of ten planned attacks by armed terrorists over the three days left 173 people dead, 308 wounded, and several land parcels of heritage and prestigious hotels are severely damaged. An explosion that occurred at Opera House, Zaveri Bazaar and Dadar on July 13, 2011, was a series of the latest terrorist attacks in Mumbai.
Mumbai is the commercial capital of India and has been involved as a world financial center. For decades, the city has been home to key financial services in India, and a focus on infrastructure and personal investment. From the ancient fisheries community and the colonial trade center, Mumbai has become the largest city in South Asia and home to the world's most productive film industry.
Geography

Mumbai has two different regions: The Mumbai District and the Suburban District of Mumbai have created two separate districts in Maharashtra. The contest district is also generally named as the Island City or South Mumbai. The total area of Mumbai is 603.4 km2 (233 sq mi). The size of the island is 67.79 km2 (26 sq mi), while its suburban district covers 370 km2 (143 sq mi), while another 437,71 km2 (169 sq meters) area under the guidance of the Large Mumbai Munisipal Corporation (PMMB). The remaining areas include the defense facilities, the Mumbai Harbor, the Borivali Atomic Energy Commission and National Park, which are outside the PMMB shelter.
Mumbai spread out at the mouth of the Ulhas River on India's western seaboard, known as Konkan. The area sat on the island of Salsette, which some shared with Thane district. Mumbai borders the Arabian Sea in the west. Some parts of the city are situated at sea level, from 10 meters (33 feet) to 15 meters (49 feet); the city averages 14 meters (46 feet). North Mumbai (Salsette) is a hilly area, and the city's highest point is 450 meters (1,476 feet) in Salsette in the Powai-Kanheri series.

Lake Tulsi and Lake Vihar are situated at the Borivili National Park, which lies within the city's boundaries, Supply of Lake Powai, which also falls within the boundaries of this city, is only used for agricultural and industrial purposes. Three small rivers, the Dahisar, Poinsar (or Poisar) and Ohiwara (or Oshiwara) run from the park, while the polluted Mithi River originates from Lake Tulsi and collects the water flowing from Lake Vihar and Powai. The city's shoreline is surrounded by a number of rivers and gulf, from the Thane River in the east to the Madh Marve in the west. The eastern coast of Salsette Island is covered by large mangrove marshes, which are rich in kean biodiversity, while its west coast is predominantly sandy and rocky.
The land covering the area of the city is generally sand because it is adjacent to the sea. In subcities, land covering parts of aluvial and around. The rocks in the region consist of layers of black Decade basalt, and with varied acid and base content originated from end of Cretaceus era and the beginnings of Eocene. Mumbai is in a seismic active zone passed 23 fault lines in the surrounding region. It is classified as a III Seismic Zone area, which can mean an earthquake berk 6.5 uatan on the Richter scale.

Economy

Mumbai is India's largest city based on its population and financial center and commercial sources, which contributed 6.16% of the total GDP. It served as an economic center in India, which contributed 10 percent of the factory's work, 25 percent of the industrial expenditure, 33 percent of the income tax revenue, 60 percent of the customs revenue, 20 percent of the central excise revenue, 40 percent of India's foreign trade and 4,000 (U.S. $560 million in corporate tax). Along with other parts of India, Mumbai has been a mute witness to economic explosions since liberalization in 1991, financial explosions in the mid-19th century and setting up IT, exports, services and resorts in the 2000s. Although Mumbai was known as the center of India's economic activity in the 1990s, the Mumbai Metropolitan Area is now a silent witness to the reduction in its contribution in India's GDP.
In October 2015, the Mumbai GDP was $278 billion (from 2014). and her per capita income (PPP) in 2009 was 486,0000 (US$6,800), which is about three times national average. Income per capita nominal is ₹125,000 (US$1,800), (US$2,094). A number of Indian contentiles (including Larsen and Toubro, State Bank of India (SBI), Life Insurance Corporation of India (LIC), Tata Group, Godrej and Reliance) and five Mumbai-based Fortune Global 500 companies. The situation was facilitated by the presence of the Reserve Bank of India (RBI), the Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE), the Indian National Stock Exchange (BSN) and regulators of financial sector such as the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI).
By the 1970s, Mumbai was largely reserved for textile and port factories, but since then local economies have been divided into financial, engineering, diamond ordering, health care and information technology. Key sectors that contribute to the economy of the city are: finance, australia & jewels, the processing of animals, IT and ITES, textile and entertainment. Nariman Point and Bandra Kurla Complex are the main financial center of Mumbai. In addition to competing with alore Bangladesh, Hyderabad and Pune, Mumbai also engraved its own achievement in the information technology industry. The Santacruz Exports Processing Zone and the International Infotech Park (Mumbai Navi) offered quality facilities for IT companies.
State and central government officials include a large percentage of the city's workforce pek. Mumbai also has a large number of semi-skilled and unskilled workers who mostly earn a living as street vendors, taxi drivers, mechanics and other blue-collar professions. Shipping and port industries were also established, with the Mumbai Harbor one of the most important and oldest ports in India. Dharavi, in the middle of Mumbai, has experienced an increase in the large recycle industry, which is treating recyclable wastes from other parts of the city; the district has about 15,000 single room manufacturers.
Mumbai reached the sixth of the top ten global cities in terms of its number of billionaires, the 48th in the World Commercial Center Index 2008, seventh in the list "Ten Big City for the Billionaire" according to Forbes magazine (April 2008), and the first in terms of the average domestic wealth. By 2008, the Globalization and World Cities Study Group (GaWC) organized Mumbai as an "alpha world city", third in its category from global cities. Mumbai was the world's third-most expensive market, and became one of the fastest cities in the country to start business in 2009.
Government
Mumbai Besar, a 603-square-kilometer (233 sq mi) region, comprises of the Mumbai-City district and the Suburban Mumbai, which borders Colaba in the southern region, Mulund and Dahisar in the north, and Mankhurd in the east. The population according to the 2011 census was 12,442.373.
