Nashville is located in the center of the geographical region known as Nashville Basin, surrounded by the Cumberland Plateau plateau in the east. The region is characterized by a thriving agricultural sector and a great diversity of local fauna.

Nashville has fresh and relatively short summers and warm, humid winters and long spring and autumn periods. Winter temperatures are usually just above zero, and a fair amount of light snow generally falls from December to February, even though the big snow storms that fall 15 centimeters or more in a day are quite rare. Nashville can be subject to severe storms and tornadoes during the spring and autumn months. The summers are hot, but not more than the rest of the southeast of the United States with temperatures around 32 °C during the day.

History

Nashville was founded in 1779 and grew rapidly because of its excellent position on the Cumberland River. In 1806, it became the headquarters of Davidson County. Nashville was named the capital of Tennessee in 1843.

Like many cities in the United States of South America, Nashville was not immune to the economic hardship of the post-civil war, but the city quickly recovered. It took only a few years for the city to regain its important position for trade and to develop a solid industrial base. The post-civil war years of the late 19th century brought new prosperity to Nashville. These prosperous economic times have left the city with a heritage of large buildings in the classic style, which can still be seen all over the city center.

Since 1970, the city has grown enormously, especially during the economic boom of the 1990s under the leadership of Mayor (former Tennessee Governor) Phil Bredesen, who has made urban renewal a priority, and has helped to build or restructure several landmarks, including the Country Music Hall of Fame, the city's headquarters Nashville Public Library, Bridgestone Arena and Nissan Stadium.
