Tequitinitlan is the capital city of Zacapican. The city is located within the country's eastern Zacaco region, and is less than 200 kilometers from the southern Thassalian Ocean. The city is made up of more than 900 Calpolli communal wards, which are organized into 26 Huecalpolli or super-wards that serve as the macro level subdivision of Zacapitec cities with a population exceeding 200,000. Tequitinitlan (lit. "City of Workers") was formed following the Red Banner Revolution in the year 1780 through the merging of six Atlepetls including the Imperial capital at Chicomoztoc into one unified urban center, and has multiple distinct "centers" which could each be described as a downtown area in their own right. Like Zacapican's largest city Tecolotlan, the city of Tequitinitlan encompasses the entire area of the corresponding Atlepelt of Tequitinitlan, placing the second and third level subdivisions on the same scale. Thus, the Tlatoani and Mayor of the city operate as a de facto diarchy with preference given to the Tlatoani as the Atlepetl level executive in case of dispute. The seat of the Monarchy of Zacapican which is also the formal seat of the national government is located within Tequitinitlan in a special district of the city known as the Tlatoloztotla which is governed directly by the national monarch. Offices of the Tlacacallique parliament and other aspects of the elected government are located immediately outside the bounds of the Tlatoloztotla, opposite the royal palace of government in which the Chief Secretary and the executive government of the monarch resides. The space between the two is the Zocalo or central plaza of the city of Tequitinitlan, which is known as the Tribunal Square.
