Arsenal Football Club are a Premier League football club based in Holloway, London.

One of
the most successful clubs in English football, they have won 13 First Division and Premier
League titles and a joint record 11 FA Cups.
Arsenal's success has been particularly consistent: the club has accumulated the second most
points in English top-flight football,
[2]
holds the ongoing record for the longest uninterrupted
period in the top flight, and would be placed first in an aggregated league of the entire 20th
century.

Arsenal are the second side to complete an English top-flight season unbeaten (in the
200304 season), doing so under almost twice the matches of the previous team.
Arsenal were founded in 1886 in Woolwich and in 1893 became the first club from the south of
England to join the Football League. In 1913, they moved north across the city to Arsenal
Stadium in Highbury. In the 1930s, they won five League Championship titles and two FA Cups.
After a lean period in the post-war years they won the League and FA Cup Double, in the 1970
71 season, and in the 1990s and first decade of the 21st century, won two more Doubles and
reached the 2006 UEFA Champions League Final. Since neighbouring Tottenham Hotspur, the
two clubs have had a fierce rivalry, the North London derby.
Arsenal has one of the highest incomes
[4]
and largest fanbases
[5]
in the world. Forbes's 2014
estimate put Arsenal as the fifth most valuable association football club in the world, valued at
more than $1.3 billion
