The dining room or dining room is the room in an apartment or home that is primarily used for eating.
In the dining room there is a dining table, which used to be called a Tafel in castles or palaces. People meet at this table to eat together.
In the past, kings or great rulers had appropriately huge dining rooms, with tables seating hundreds of people. The king sat, usually elevated, at one end of the room so that he could overlook the invited people, his knights or his court.
Often there was also a separate enclosed niche where an ecclesiastical leader (a bishop or other high figure of the church) could sit.
