History
Shortly after declaring independence, the new interim Parliament of the Republic of California deemed the establishment of the National Capital Region a necessity, as at the time dispute arose over whether or not to host the capital of the nation in Sacramento, the city serving as the state capital. With the accession of new states, proposals were made to the new states regarding a decision to host the new national capital. Through almost unanimous refusal, the decision was made to have the State of California host the capital district of the country. A proposal was submitted to various cities and counties in the state and finally the decision was narrowed down to Los Angeles and Orange counties, only to have the competition between the two counties intensify in their bid to host the capital of the nation. The interim Parliament, determined to resolve the issue ruled in the favor of both counties instructed the government of both counties to form a committee to determine the portion of land both would cede to create the National Capital Region.
Shortly after the accession of the former Canadian province of British Columbia, the city of Victoria served as the provisional capital while the 28-by-28 square mile area encompassing the N.C.R. was purchased from both counties and construction crews began the redevelopment of the area. The cornerstone for the new Capitol Building was laid on November 19, 2000 to commemorate the one-year anniversary since independence.
The Los Angeles, Los Angeles N.C.R. was established in 1999 through a Parliamentary initiative in accordance with Article 3, paragraph 3 "to assign a portion of land to be designated for the residency of the national capital, for the purposes of establishing a district to facilitate this district’s impartiality so as to remain unaffected by the legislation of any state, territory or overseas department that would affect legislation on the nation’s behalf." and paragraph 4 "to exercise exclusive legislation in all cases whatsoever over such National Capital Region (not exceeding thirty miles square) as may, by cession of particular states, and the acceptance of Parliament, become the Seat of the Government of the Californian Empire, and to exercise like authority over all places purchased by the consent of the Legislature of the State in which the same shall be, for the construction of forts, magazines, arsenals, dock-yards and other needful buildings."
During the period of the Second American Civil War, the city remained untouched allowing construction of transportation avenues and various buildings within the city such as 1 Dévnostraéva Tower, the Parliament, the National Military Command Center, and the offices of the Department of State Security, the National Investigative Agency, and the State Intelligence Agency to be completed on schedule.
