Jerusalem
Jerusalem was originally used as fortress-capital of the Jebusites. According to the Bible, David established it as the capital of the United Kingdom of Israel. It remained the capital of Judah during both periods of Jewish home rule. In 1949, the Modern State of Israel built up Western Jerusalem as its capital. Following the Unification of Jerusalem in the Six Day War, Israel considers the whole of Jerusalem to be its capital.
Like most countries, Israel used a legislative declaration to choose its capital. West Jerusalem was established as the national capital in 1950, which was the earliest practicable point, given that Jerusalem was the scene of some of the fiercest fighting the Arab-Israeli War of 1948-9. In 1980, the Jerusalem Law made the entire unified city of Jerusalem the Israeli capital and set out the municipal boundaries of the united city.
