The Möbius strip is an example of a 2-manifold.

An n-dimensional manifold (or n-manifold) M is a topological space such that every point in M has a neighbourhood that is homeomorphic to Rn.

An n-dimensional complex manifold N is a topological space such that every point in N has a neighbourhood that is homeomorphic to Cn.

Manifolds are Hausdorff and 2nd-countable.
