In the 17th century, Benthenses explorers ventured into the area, seeking new lands and resources. These explorers, led by Captain [[Rafael Santos]] and accompanied by a group of settlers, established the first permanent settlement in the region on August 12th, 1709. They named it [[Villa Nova]], signifying a new beginning and a testament to their aspirations for a prosperous future.


Over the years, Villa Nova experienced both periods of growth and challenges. The fertile lands of Aregoyape attracted settlers from various regions of Bentho, including migrants from the eastern coastal areas and indigenous communities seeking refuge. The population grew steadily, and the settlement evolved into a vibrant agricultural and trade center.
In the 19th century, the discovery of valuable natural resources, such as gold and timber, brought economic prosperity to the region. This influx of wealth and opportunity led to the expansion of Villa Nova, which was subsequently renamed Caapulas, after a prominent Benthenses leader who played a crucial role in defending the settlement from external threats.
