Historical evolution In the third century BC, there were human activities in Dubai. In recent years, archaeologists have discovered human settlement sites and cultural relics in the fifth century AD in Jumeirah, Dubai.

Villages in Dubai have been recorded since 1799. /kloc-In the early 8th century, the descendants of Bahners tribe Al Abu Farasa began to migrate to Dubai, and they lived in Abu Dhabi until 1833.

Villages in Dubai have been recorded since 1799. /kloc-In the early 8th century, the descendants of Banas clan Al Abu Falasa began to migrate to Dubai, and they lived in Abu Dhabi until 1833.

1820, 1 On June 8, 2008, the Sheikh of Dubai signed a basic peace treaty (maritime peace treaty) with Britain.

1833, the 800-member Bahners tribe led by Maktoum family left Abu Dhabi and set out for Dubai without any resistance, establishing a new dynasty. 1852, Maktoum became the chief, which started the family rule in Dubai. Since then, Dubai, a new independent emirate, has officially left Abu Dhabi.

After many years, Dubai developed rapidly and became an important maritime trading port for foreign businessmen who settled in the city. Its loose free trade price and reasonable tax system have attracted adventurers from all regions to come here to develop.

1833, Allermark Toum dynasty of Banas clan left Abu Dhabi and moved to Dubai without any resistance. Since then, Dubai, a new independent emirate, has officially left Abu Dhabi. Qawasim tried to plunder Dubai, but they were stopped. 1835, Dubai and the rest of Trujiler Emirates signed a maritime armistice agreement with Britain, and signed a "permanent armistice agreement" 20 years later. The secret agreement signed by Dubai through 1892 was protected by Britain (from the Ottoman Turks). For example, Dubai's four neighboring countries, Abu Dhabi, Rushma, Sharjah and Om Guwen, are all located on the trade route with India and are important places.

1892 March, Trujil Emirate (or Trujil Oman) was established.

Unlike surrounding towns, Dubai's managers encourage business and trade. Dubai used to be an important port to attract foreign businessmen (mainly Indians) to settle in the city. Until 1930, it was famous for pearl export.

After the devaluation of 1966, Dubai joined the newly independent Qatar and established a new currency measurement-Qatar/Dubai Rial. After oil was discovered at a distance of 0/20km from Dubai coastline/kloc-,Dubai was granted the right to exploit oil.

197 1 year, after the former protectorate Britain left the Persian Gulf, Dubai, Abu Dhabi and five other Emirates established the United Arab Emirates on February 2, 197 1 year. 1973 Dubai and other Emirates adopt a single currency: dirham.

1954, Britain established a political institution in Dubai and became a protector. Dubai's flexible and relaxed policy towards foreigners in trade has attracted more foreigners. Due to the participation of these foreign "immigrants", Dubai's internationalization process has been accelerated, and Dubai has quickly become a major port city for international trade. Since 1960 discovered oil in this area, the long-term development prospect of Dubai has been optimistic. With the export of the first barrel of crude oil in 1969, Dubai's economy and urban infrastructure have developed faster. 197 1 With the withdrawal of the former British protector, the geographical boundary of Dubai was redrawn, and Dubai, Abu Dhabi and five other Emirates established the United Arab Emirates.

After 1970s, Dubai developed rapidly. The development foundation of its national income comes from its oil trade, and the development of Dubai benefits from the national leaders. Through its successful management and operation, Dubai has enabled people to get the greatest benefit from the oil that is not very rich in reserves. And make use of the development prospect brought by oil to rapidly develop urban infrastructure and make the country prosper. Since then, Dubai has taken advantage of its international trade market to vigorously develop tourism while developing its economy. Many international tourists come here for sightseeing and vacation every year, and the number of tourists is increasing year by year.

The difference between Dubai and other Emirates is that oil accounts for only 6% of GDP. Most of the income comes from Jebel Ali Free Zone, and now more comes from tourism. [Edit this paragraph] 2. Geographical environment and geography
