Ajman (Arabic: عجمان) is the capital of the emirate of Ajman in the United Arab Emirates. It is the fifth-largest city in UAE after Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah, and Al Ain. Located along the Persian Gulf, it is engulfed by the larger emirate of Sharjah in the territory.
The city has more than 90% of the population of the emirate. The area runs directly into the city of Sharjah along the coast to the southwest, which in turn is adjacent to Dubai, forming a continuous urban area.
