 Springfield's nearest neighboring town is Shelbyville. There is a strong rivalry between the towns, dating back to a rivalry between their founders—Jebediah Springfield and [[Shelbyville Manhattan]]. Manhattan wanted to found a city where men were free to marry their cousins, but Springfield refused to allow it, so Shelbyville was founded as a rival town.<ref name="Lemon of Troy">"[[Lemon of Troy]]"</ref> The story of the dispute between Jebediah Springfield and Shelbyville Manhattan contains faint references to the historical stories of the deal between Asa Lovejoy and William Overton to file a land claim, and the dispute between Lovejoy and Francis W. Pettygrove over the name of Portland, Oregon.

 For a brief period, Springfield divided itself into two cities, Olde Springfield and New Springfield, on the basis of an area code division. Wealthy Olde Springfield, with Mayor Quimby, anchorman [[Kent Brockman]], and bullies such as [[Nelson Muntz]], was separated from the rest of Springfield by a wall that was erected by poor New Springfield. Mayor Quimby maintained control of Olde Springfield while [[Homer Simpson]] ran New Springfield. The cities were later re-united through a concert by The Who.

 In its early days, the city was the target of many Native American Indian raids, and to this day many forts and trading posts remain (including [[Fort Springfield]] and [[Fort Sensible]]). It was also the site of two battles during the American Civil War. After the city was founded should the population determine what the town would be called, there was a tie between Maudville and Blister City. In [[Jebediah Springfield]]'s first official act as mayor, he broke the tie and named the town Springfield in honor of his father.<ref name="history">"[[The Legend of Jebediah Springfield]]"</ref>
