About Dublin

Dublin is the biggest city in Ireland. It is also the capital of Ireland. The city is said to be founded by the Vikings and this city has been Ireland's primary city for most of the island's history since medieval times. Today, it is an economic, administrative and cultural centre for the island of Ireland, has been recognized as an emerging global city by the Loughborough University group's 1999 inventory and has one of the fastest growing populations of any European capital city.

According to Wikipedia-

“The name Dublin is a Hiberno-English derivative of 'Dubh Linn' (Irish, dubh -> black, and linn -> pool). Historically, in the traditional Gaelic script used for the Irish language, 'bh' was written with a dot over the 'b', viz 'Du? Linn' or 'Du?linn'. The French-speaking Normans omitted the dot and spelled the name variously as 'Develyn' or 'Dublin'.”

The city is especially famed for its culture and literature. It has produced many prominent literary figures like Nobel laureates William Butler Yeats, George Bernard Shaw and Samuel Beckett. Other influential writers and playwrights from Dublin include Oscar Wilde, Jonathan Swift and the creator of Dracula, Bram Stoker.
