Dublin

Dublin was the capital and largest city of Ireland. It was located in the province of Leinster.

In 989, the Viking Sitric Silkbeard became King of Dublin. Following the first Leinster Revolt in 1000, however, his position was undermined by the political machinations of the Irish-born King Brian Boru of Munster. In 1014, the Battle of Clontarf was fought in Dublin. (AUDIO: The Book of Kells)

On 18 December 1953, the Sky Gypsy, piloted by Diane Holmes and carrying the passengers Emma-Louise Cowell and John Ellis, departed Cardiff for Dublin but never arrived. It flew into the Rift, reappearing in 2007. (TV: Out of Time)
