Capital
From WikIkariam, the Ikariam wiki - Guides, buildings, ships and more.
The Capital is the city you start with, when you set up an account. You cannot change the position of your Capital, until you have build a second colony. To build a second colony, you have to upgrade your Palace in your capital. As soon as you upgrade a Governor's Residence to a palace on a second colony, it will destroy the first Palace and the new colony with the Palace is now your Capital. The Capital's Palace will be completely destroyed!
