The Federal Capital Territory was established on 13.VI.1679 in order to create a separate entity to host the federal capital. From independence in 1671 the federal government had been located in Niyi. With the establishment of the Second Republic the government desired a fresh start. The location at the intersection between Amarra, Sanilla and Thanatos was chosen for symbolic reasons. The town already located in the district was renamed Sanama City and made the new capital of the federation. Government offices are expected to begin the move to the new capital during 1679.
