Dundee (Dùn Dèagh in Gaelic) is Scotland's fourth largest city, situated on the North bank of the Firth of Tay. The city is built on the basalt plug of an extinct volcano (174 m (571 feet)), now called Dundee Law.

During the Iron Age it was the site of a Pictish settlement. In his History of the Scottish People (1527), Hector Boece suggests that the Pictish name was Alec-tum, meaning 'a handsome place'. (This name was still in use, alongside the modern name, as late as 1607, according to William Camden.)

Traditionally, Dundee lay within the county of Angus (historically named Forfarshire). From 1975, the city was the administrative centre of Tayside Region (and was itself administered as one of the districts of that region). Since the abolition of two-tier local government in Scotland in 1996, the City of Dundee (incorporating the town of Broughty Ferry) has been a self-contained Unitary Authority. This makes it Scotland's smallest local government subdivision.

The city, which celebrated its 800th anniversary in 1991, is known as the 'City of Discovery'.

On 5 March 2004, Dundee was granted Fairtrade City status.
