Los Angeles (Universe 198)

Los Angeles, officially the City of Los Angeles, often known by its initials L.A. or as the City of Angels, is the most populous city in the U.S. state of California and the second most populous in the United States, after New York City.

Los Angeles was founded by Felipe de Neve, Spanish governor, in 1781. It was incorporated in 1850. The city's longest serving mayor was Tom Bradley. Under his rule, the city's ever growing population moved it from the 3rd most populous city, to the 2nd most populous city in the United States, surpassing Chicago.

At some point, the skies above the city turn red, the city is than destroyed by anti-matter during the Anti-Monitor Crisis, the city and the rest of the universe are then rebuilt after the sacrifice of Oliver Queen.
