1.2.The Historyof Los Angeles County.

WhenSpanish occupation of California began in 1769, an exploratory expedition ofmore than 60 persons led by Gaspar de Portola moved north through the area nowknown as Los Angeles. They camped by a river where fertile soil andavailability of water for irrigation impressed members of the party. FatherJuan Crespi, who accompanied the group, saw the location as having all therequirements for a large settlement. He named the river El Rio de NuestraSenora la Reyna de Los Angeles de Porciuncula, which means “The River of Our Lady theQueen of the Angels of Porciuncula.”
In September 1771 Father JuniperoSerra and a group of Spaniards founded the San Gabriel Mission as the center ofthe first «community» in an area inhabited by small bands ofGabrielino Indians.

Twelve years after Portola's trek, which began in San Diego andended in Monterey, a company of settlers called «Los Pobladores» wererecruited in the states of Sonora and Sinaloa in Mexico. Their mission, underauthority of Governor Felipe de Neve, was to establish pueblos in the name ofthe king of Spain.

On September 4, 1781, the Pobladores, a group of 12 families — 46men, women and children led by Captain Rivera y Moncada — established acommunity in the area discovered by Portola, and named it El Pueblo de NuestraSenora la Reyna de Los Angeles de Porciuncula, after the nearby river. Overtime, the area became known as the Ciudad de Los Angeles, «City ofAngels,» and on April 4, 1850 became the City of Los Angeles.

California was ruled by Spain until 1822 when Mexico assumedjurisdiction. After a two-year period of hostilities with Mexico beginning in1846, the area came under U.S. control. In 1848 the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgomade California a United States territory.The County of Los Angeles wasestablished on February 18, 1850 as one of the 27 original counties, severalmonths before California was admitted to the Union. It derived its name fromthe area known as Los Angeles, already a large community, and made it thedesignated «seat» of County government.

On April1, 1850 the people of Los Angeles County asserted their newly won right ofself-government and elected a three-man Court of Sessions as their firstgoverning body. A total of 377 votes were cast in this election. In 1852 theLegislature dissolved the Court of Sessions and created a five-member Board ofSupervisors. In 1913 the citizens of Los Angeles County approved a charterrecommended by a board of freeholders which gave the County greater freedom togovern itself within the framework of state law.

II.Los Angeles.

2.1. LosAngeles now.

LosAngeles teems with excitement both sunup and sundown. Los Angeles is ayouthful, vibrant city, proud of her well extablished roots.

Claimed for Spain by Portuguese conquistador JuanCabrillo in 1542, the sleepy Indian village of 4000 was named ElPueblo NuestraSenora la Reina de Los Angeles – “The city of Our Lady Queen of the Angels.”

Today the “City Of Angels” hosts an assortment oflifestyles and a population of nearly three million, with over seven million inLos Angeles Country.

The boundaries econompass over 463 square miles ofurban ,desert, mountain and coastl landscapes. This area is large enough tohold the combined cities of St. Louis, Cleveland, Minneapolis, Milwaukee,Boston, Pittsburgh, Manhattan and San Francisco.

Los angeles basks in a mediterranean climate and 350days of golden sun yearly. The dry summers and comfortable winters make L.A.the envy of the nation.

BeverlyHills is the world-famous meeting place for the elite and the curious visitor.Rolls Royces, Mercedes and Jaguars line the streets, and the famous andnot-so-famous stroll these chic boulevards in search of recognition and fashiontrends. Gucci, Pucci, Giorgio’s, Tiffany’s and a host of other prestigiousstores add glamour and excitement to the shoping scene.

Just around the corner, nestled under the landmarkH-O-L-L-Y-W-O-O-D sign, Hollywood thrives on the creative energies of filmdirectors, actor, dancers and music makers. Universal Studios, once acombination movie studio and chicken ranch, is now the world’s largest motionpicture studio. Universal’s back lot stretches over more then 420 acres.Soundstages, western sets, Mexican villages, and New York city streets come tolife in a make-believe world.

Just over the hill-thrills, spills and excitementawait at Southern California’s exciting theme parks. Six Flags Magic Mountainoffers more than 100 rides and atractions to entertain the entire family. Visitthe nation’s oldest theme park – Knott’s Berry Farm, where the “old west” inintertwined with an abundance of heart-skipping rides. And, of course, theworld famous internationsl playground – Disneyland, offers fun and fantasy forall ages.

Dozens of additional atttractions surround Los Angeles,from Magic Mountain to the majestic Queen Mary complex, reigning over LongBeach Harbor.

One of the newest attraction in the“City of Angels” is Downtown.
