Dublin is the capital and largest city of Ireland.
History
Origins
The city originated as a Gaelic settlement by the name of Dubh Linn, named for a black pool situated south of the site.[1] In the mid 9th century, Dublin was occupied by Vikings from Scandinavia and eventually emerged into a kingdom in its own right, with a blend of Gaelic and Norse cultures.[2]
In 873, Dublin was greatly damaged as a result of a siege by the Irish kingdoms which also resulted in the death of the king Ímair. His son Bárid ascended the throne and spent the next few years rebuilding the city, while turning it into a prosperous trading hub.[3]
