Cardoza is known for its rich culture and history. It has served as Paraboca's capital since 1573. It was occupied by Zamastanian and Chanchajillan forces after the end of the Parabocan War from 1876-78. The city experienced extensive and largely unstained population growth after the Ledyanaya War ended, but modernization after Jamie Bolivar's dictatorship collapsed in 1959 led to the city becoming more of an economic and cultural center that it is known as today. The city is considered to be an international city due to its prominence in global economy and interconnectedness, and is generally thought to be the most important city in Central Euronia.
It is in a bowl-like depression, part of the Central Euronia basin, surrounded by the high Asarana Mountains. Overlooking the city is the towering, triple-peaked Acadagua, which at a height of 6,959 m (22,831 ft) makes it the tallest peak on Euronia and the fourth-tallest in the world. Its peaks are always snow-covered and can be seen from many parts of the city. At an elevation of roughly 3,650 m (11,975 ft) above sea level, Cardoza is the highest capital city in the world. Due to its altitude, Cardoza has an unusual subtropical highland climate, with rainy summers and dry winters.
