Abstract
The metric space-time is revised as a priori existing. It is substituted by the world continuum endowed only with the affine connection. The metric, accompanied by the tensor Goldstone boson, is to emerge during the spontaneous breaking of the global affine symmetry. Implications for gravity and the Universe are indicated.
