'''Birmingham''' is a city in [[Alabama]].
It was named after [[Birmingham|the English city of the same name]], as extensive iron ore deposits and a navigable waterway led it to become a major steel-producing city (like its English namesake); for many years it was known as the "[[Pittsburgh]] of the South".
It is best known as the headquarters of the [[Southeastern Conference]], the large collegiate sports conference known for its success in college football.
The LDS church operates the [[Birmingham Alabama Temple]] in the city; however, as with most of the American South, the major churches in the city are predominantly [[Evangelical]] Christian.
