Caprica City
From Battlestar Wiki, the free, open content Battlestar Galactica encyclopedia and episode guide
The largest city on Caprica, and the civil administration centre for the planet and 12 colonies as a whole, home to the exectuive, legislative and judicial branches of government.
Prior to the Cylon attack, Caprica City was home to some 7 million people. It was an ocean-front city of tall towers and glittering spires, dissected by a river, which leads down to the sea from the lakes in the hills behind the city.
A large spaceport linked the city with the rest of the 12 colonies, while the hills behind the city provided sanctuary for the well-known among the population, such as Doctor Gaius Baltar.
Caprica City was surrounded by a number of smaller hamlets, such as Oasis (Mini-Series).
