Charlotte is the largest city in North Carolina.

History

According to Mayor Quimby, Charlotte had once been named "Hitler City".

Behind the Laughter

Many American communities with names of German origins were renamed due to anti-German sentiment particularly in the wake of American entry into World War I.

Charlotte had the same name since the city was chattered by North Carolina General Assembly in 1768 and named for Charlotte of Mecklenburg-Strelitz, a German princess and reigning King George III's queen-consort.
