'''Edinburgh''' is the capital of [[Scotland]], located in [[Midlothian]]. The [[Firth of Forth]] marks the northern limit of the city, with the Pentland Hills marking the southern limit.. There is controversy over the origins of the name Edinburgh, which may derive from King Edwin of Northumbria (''Edwins-burgh'', ''burgh'' being the Northumbrian and later [[Scots]] word for fort or town) or from the earlier Cumbric ''Dún Eideann'' (Fort of Edwin).
