Where is Dubai

Dubai is one of the seven emirates that make up the United Arab Emirates in the North mid part of the Arabian Peninsula, or that emirate's main city, sometimes called "Dubai City" to distinguish it from the emirate.
The modern emirate of Dubai was created with the formation of the United Arab Emirates in 1971. However, written accounts documenting the existence of the city have existed at least 150 years prior to the formation of the UAE. Dubai has the largest population and is the second largest emirate by area, after Abu Dhabi . The current ruler of Dubai is Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, he is also the Vice President and Prime Minister of the UAE.
A majority of the emirate's revenues are from the Jebel Ali Free Zone (JAFZ) and, increasingly, from tourism and other service businesses. With enormous construction and development in various industries, Dubai has attracted world-wide attention through innovative real estate projects, sports events and conferences. However, this increased attention, coinciding with its emergence as a world business hub.
