Capital cities are important for any established empire, be it spacefaring or not, since without a capital city, an empire cannot make any money. In order to declare a city the capital, it must have a capitol building.
Empire Capital City
The Empire Capital City is the center point of the whole empire. It is the place from which all government business is being done and where all or most of the official government buildings are located. In Shores of Hazeron, one city in each empire may be designated as the empire capital. Any city can be declared the capital of the empire, as long as it has a capitol building. Government officials with the correct permissions can designate a city to be the empire capital city.
The empire capital city is an important and strategic part of an empire. Here is why:
- Sensor consoles aboard spacecraft display a distinctive blip for the empire capital city.
- The DNA of citizens in the capital city will be the base DNA shown to players when viewing the empire on empire joining list.
- An empire must have an empire capital city to be tallied on the Empire Standings page of the main website.
Galaxy Capital City
One city of an empire in each galaxy may be designated as the sector capital. In order to become a galaxy capital, the city must meet the same requirements as the empire capital, i.e. have a capitol building. Government officials with the correct permissions and domain over the galaxy can designate a city to be the empire capital city.
When a galaxy has a galaxy capital, sector capital cities and cities with no sector capital in that galaxy will send their daily tribute to the galaxy capital instead of directly to the empire capital city. This allows the tax revenue from a galaxy to be concentrated by funnelling it through a single city.
Sector Capital City
One city of an empire in each sector may be designated as the sector capital. In order to become a sector capital, the city must meet the same requirements as the empire capital, i.e. have a capitol building. Government officials with the correct permissions and domain over the sector can designate a city to be the empire capital city.
An empire must have an empire capital city to have any use for sector capitals. For this reason, a sector capital cannot be declared if the empire does not have a capital city.
When a sector has a sector capital, cities in that sector send their daily tribute to the sector capital instead of directly to the galaxy capital or empire capital city. This allows the tax revenue from a sector to be concentrated by funnelling it through a single city.
Sector capitals create more concentrations of money for avatars to collect large debts that are owed them. This may help to distribute the risk of losing the treasury due to the capture of a lone capital city.
Sector capitals provide alternate locations for the capital city, in case the capital city needs to be moved. There is no cost associated with moving the capital. Once the new capital is declared, cities and sector capitals will begin sending their tribute to the new capital city.
It is possible for a city to be both the empire capital city and a sector capital. The empire capital is not automatically considered to be a sector capital. A sector capital must be explicitly declared.
