	To be updated! AMSTERDAM ATHENS BEOGRAD BERLIN BERN BRUSSELS The capital of Belgium (Bruxelles, Belgique) A theory for the etymology of Brussels is that it derives from the Old Dutch Broeksel or other spelling variants, which means marsh (broek) and home (sel) or "home in the marsh". The origin of the settlement that was to become Brussels lies in St Gaugericus' construction of a chapel on an island in the river Senne around 580. The official founding of Brussels is usually situated around 979, when Duke Charles of Lower Lotharingia transferred the relics of Saint Gudula from Moorsel to the Saint Gaugericus chapel. Charles would construct the first permanent fortification in the city, doing so on that same island. Brussels serves as capital of the European Union, hosting the major political institutions of the Union The EU has not declared a capital formally, though the Treaty of Amsterdam formally gives Brussels the seat of the European Commision and the Counsil of the European Union. It locates the formal seat of European Parliament in the French city of Strasbourg, where votes take place with the Council on the proposals made by the Commission. Brussels serves also as the seat of NATO.

The common name for the city in Modern Irish is Baile Átha Cliath (meaning "town of the hurdled ford"). The writings of the Greek astronomer and cartographer Ptolemey provide perhaps the earliest reference to human habitation in the area now known as Dublin. In around A.D. 140 he referred to a settlement he called Eblana Civitas. The settlement 'Dubh Linn' dates perhaps as far back as the first century BC and later a monastery was built there, though the town was established in about 841 by the Norse (Vikings).

Since at least the nineteenth century, the name "London" has also referred to the metropolis developed around it. Today, the bulk ofthis conurbation forms the London region and the Greater London administrative area, with its own elected mayor and assembly.
