Just over 200 years ago Dubai was a barely regarded dependant of Abu Dhabi, all that was to change in 1833 when the Al Maktoum dynasty took control of the area with little or no resistance. This did lead however to a lot of friction between Abu Dhabi and the newly created emirate of Dubai. The next 140 years were largely spent under the protection of the British.
