Alahuela is the federal capital and seat of government of Cartadania. The city is located at the coastal border of Alexandria and Verona in the country's Hispania region. It was founded on April 17, 1710, to serve as the new national capital. The city forms the core of the National Metro area, along with four counties from the state of Alexandria and two from Verona. The Constitution of Cartadania authorized the establishment of a capital region under the sole jurisdiction of Congress and is therefore not a part of any state, but an independent city of Cartadania.
All three branches of Cartadania's federal government are centered in the city: executive, legislative, and judiciary. Alahuela also hosts 26 foreign embassies. The city utilizes Alahuela-Siquiera International Airport connects it to all other major Cartadanian cities and many international destinations, though it is within an hour drive of Palmdale International Airport in Everglade County in Verona and Saint Thomas International Airport in Rieti County in Alexandria.
