Castelonovo ([kɐstʃelɔnovo]), officially the Federal Capital of Castelonovo (Iustian: Capital Federal de Castelonovo), is the capital and largest city of Belmonte. Castelonovo is also the primate city of Belmonte, being the political, administrative, financial and cultural centre of the country with the three branches of the Federal Government located there whilst its name is often used as a synecdoche to refer to the government itself. Its metropolitan population is the second largest of Asteria Inferior and the tenth-largest of the world, being the biggest Iustian-speaking city too. Together with Riachuelo, the city is undergoing a major conurbation process, being part of the Central Metropolitan Axis, which is the most populous and urbanized area of the country.
The city was founded by bandeirante Magalhães Cunha as an outpost for future expeditions further inland, however, its central strategic location and rough terrain that served as a natural defence towards hostile attacks led to exponential growth. By the late 18th century, before Belmontese independence, the city was already the biggest in the colony. After independence, the city became the centre for liberal and federalist thought and was chosen as the country's capital after the establishment of the First Republic.
Throughout the 19th century, Castelonovo became the major industrial hub of the country and was the city that most received immigrants from that time. Together with a massive rural exodus, the city was affected by a variety of problems combined with the political instability of the era, with the majority of protests, riots, battles and revolts happening there. The city was severely destroyed during the Great War and the consequent Entente occupation and liberation, suffering major renovation process in the upcoming decades.
Today, Castelonovo is the wealthiest and most developed city of Belmonte, being a diverse and cosmopolitan city home to regional and international diasporas of different ethnicities towards the globe. The city is also known for its religious diversity and its LGBTQ+ population. The city has as its official motto Semper Invicta, which means "Always Undefeated", and has as its nicknames Terra de Oportunidades (Land of Opportunities) and Selva de Pedra (Stone Jungle). Castelonovo is the seat of several museums, shows and festivals, and have been the host city of numerous world events of significant importance.
