List of sister cities in North Carolina facts for kids
Have you ever heard of "sister cities"? They are like special friends that cities in different countries make with each other! In Europe, they are sometimes called "twin towns."
When two cities become sister cities, they agree to work together. This helps people from both places learn about each other's cultures and build friendships. It's not just cities that can be partners; sometimes counties, regions, or even states become "sisters" too!
Many places in North Carolina team up with cities around the world. They do this through an organization called Sister Cities International. Its main goal is to help create peace and understanding between different cultures.
