Warwick

Warwick is located in the north-east of the United States, in Rhode Island. The city was founded by Samuel Gorton in 1642 and has witnessed major events in American history. Shortly after it had been established, Warwick was destroyed during King Philip's War (1675-1676). The city saw the famous "Gaspee Affair" — the first act of armed resistance to the British, which took place even before the famous "Boston Tea Party" and became a real prelude to the American Revolution and the War of Independence. Warwick was the birthplace of General Nathanael Greene, a prominent military commander of that war, as well as George Greene, the hero of the Battle of Gettysburg. It is interesting to see the City Hall building, walk along the historical streets of the city. Today, Warwick is home to Rhode Island's main airport, T. F. Green International Airport.
