Kinadica is the capital and largest city of the Kingdom of Rajyaghar and sits along the north-western coastline of the Kingdom. A settlement for over 2 millenia, Kinadica was originally founded by the Sanyukti Clan. Since its founding, the city has expanded continuously from its ancient heart, which is now colloquially known as the 'ancient city'. The ancient city lies along the southern coastline of the city in a small bay which was used for additional protection against sea-faring invaders.
After the fall of Kismat in 800 CE and the subsequent collapse of the Rajana Dynasty Empire, the remaining members of the Rajana Dynasty returned to Kinadica where they formed the Sanyukti Confederacy (later Empire) with it being governed from this ancient city with the Maharajas of the Empire residing in the Samudra Palace. The heart of modern-day Rajyaghar is the relatively new Government Hill, constructed during the colonial era to house the new government of the Rajyani Territories. Adjacent to Governmnet Hill is the Central Business District which makes up Kinadica's famous city skyline due to its numerous skyscrapers. Alongside Government Hill, the CBD and the Ancient City there are an additional 42 neighbourhoods that comprise modern Kinadica.
Kinadica is governed by a Mayor-Council style government with the Mayor of Kinadica serving as the executive head of the city government, reporting to the Kinadica City Council which acts as the legislature of the city. The City's police service (Capitol Police) is led by the Police Commissioner who is nominated by the Major and confirmed by the Council. The City is located in the Capitol District and is the only settlemet in the district. Kinadica National Park occupies the remaining space between the limits of the city of Kinadica and the Capitol District borders.
