Archaeological discoveries show that Dubai was inhabited in the Bronze Age. In the following 5,000 years, the development of Dubai was quiet and unknown.

Dubai in 1833 did not reach the turning point until 1902. At that time, the port of Lunge in Iran imposed heavy taxes, and Iranian and Arab businessmen moved to Dubai on the other side of the Persian Gulf. Since then, Dubai's international trade has begun to take off and gradually become an important port and trade center in the Gulf region and even the whole Middle East.

Dubai is the economic and financial center in the Middle East, and also the main passenger and cargo transportation hub in the Middle East. Oil revenue promoted the early development of Dubai, but due to limited reserves and low production level, after 20 10, the oil industry only accounted for less than 5% of Dubai's gross national product. After oil, Dubai's economy mainly depends on tourism, aviation, real estate and financial services.
