History
Capitalia shares a lot of history with its neighbor Indipendia. Those two states are known as the so-called "heart of Spila". They united in the 11th century and adopted the name Spila for the new country. As the centuries passed by, it became the economically strongest country in the region. That's why Continentia decided to unite with them in 1843. Soon, the Former Escotian Republic of Bedingfieldia decided also to do that. Those united countries attacked Eastern Escotia and put them under Spilian control, thus making the territory of Spila 2.5 times larger than it originaly was.

After the enlargement of Spila, Capitalia, as the administrative and industrial center, survived a real economical and immigration boom. The population of Carine City has grown from 150 000 to 8 million in less than one century. The city and the whole state keep on growing today also.
