The location of the economic hub can vary depending on the context, but it often refers to cities or regions that serve as centers for finance, trade, and industry. Historically, places like New York City, London, and Tokyo have been recognized as major economic hubs due to their concentration of businesses, financial institutions, and infrastructure. In recent years, cities like Shanghai and Dubai have also emerged as significant economic centers. The specific location can change over time as global economic dynamics evolve.
A city that dominates its country's economy and government is often referred to as a "capital city" or "economic capital." In some cases, it may also be known as a "primate city," which is characterized by its significant influence and population size compared to other cities in the country. Examples include cities like London, Paris, and Bangkok, which serve as key political and economic hubs.
Between 1200 and 1500, the people who benefited most from social, technological, and economic changes were primarily those in burgeoning urban centers in Europe, such as Florence, Venice, and London. The expansion of trade networks and the rise of the merchant class fueled economic growth and social mobility. Technological advancements, like the printing press and improvements in navigation, facilitated the spread of knowledge and exploration, particularly benefiting the wealthy and educated elite. Additionally, regions involved in trade, such as the Mediterranean and the North Sea, experienced significant economic development and cultural exchange.

False
The London Economic Conference
At the London Conference of 1933, President Franklin D. Roosevelt refused to return to the gold standard, which was a key request from other nations seeking to stabilize their currencies during the Great Depression. He believed that adhering to the gold standard would limit the U.S. government's ability to expand its money supply and implement necessary economic recovery measures. Roosevelt's stance ultimately contributed to the conference's failure, as it hindered efforts to achieve international monetary cooperation.
Roosevelt first agreed to send a delegation including Sec. of State Cordell Hull. But since the conference's agenda didn't agree with his own he passed it up. He wanted to concentrate primarily on the recovery of the American domestic economy and to stimulate American recovery with inflammatory policies. An agreement to maintain the dollar in terms of other currencies could have tied his hands. While he was on his yacht off the New England coast he radioed a message to London scolding the conference for trying to stabilize currencies and declared America's withdrawal from negotiations.

Who was at the London Conference in 1867 and why were they there?
President Franklin D. Roosevelt refused to participate in the London Economic Conference in 1933 primarily because he believed that international cooperation on economic issues would limit his ability to implement his New Deal policies. He feared that agreeing to a fixed exchange rate system would constrain the U.S. economy and hinder recovery efforts during the Great Depression. Additionally, he wanted to maintain flexibility in U.S. monetary policy, which he felt was essential for addressing domestic economic challenges. Ultimately, his decision reflected a prioritization of national interests over international agreements.
