=== Founding and Building of Cape Cocoa ===
[[File:Cape Cocoa Night.png|thumb|A townhouse built during the early stages of Cape Cocoa's construction.|alt=|left|300x300px]]A [https://www.reddit.com/r/civclassics/comments/lviflf/official_claims_for_cape_cocoa/ reddit post] was made to formalize the land claims of Cape Cocoa, and was added to the map promptly after its submission into the [[Unified Map Project]].
The first dwellings were built on the side of the cliff face, with the Cliffside Boardwalk being the only path that connected the cliffside dwellings to the surface of the cliff. AK's cliffside dwelling later expanded upward and became the Traveller's Inn, while the room carved into the cliff was later developed into a tunnel that started the creation of Cape Cocoa's Underground.
Floating sea farms were built on the shallow waters at the base of the cliff, and the building of the first Coast Cabins were overseen by both AK and Northstar (IGN Northstar404).
Line 27:
Around Mid-April, the construction of the Town Hall was completed, and along with it came an official Constitution document and a flag change. The Constitution established Cape Cocoa as the Maritime State, and its contents were drafted by AK and Block (IGN RarelyUseful).
[[File:CapeCocoaProper1.png|left|thumb|Cape Cocoa Proper, circa April 2021]]
Shortly after the signage of the Constitution, on April 18th general elections were held to determine new leadership positions in the young state. This resulted in the appointment of AK as Cape Cocoa's first Prime Minister. Eloc and Northstar became the first representatives of Parliament, representing Elonorth and Southmarket respectively. Finally, klabss (IGN Krazvalt) was made the first Grand Justice of Cape Cocoa, which also makes him the first Senior Justice.
==== Growth and further expansion ====
The passage of the Citizenship Act (aka the Citizenship Codes or the Bill of Rights) opened up the state to newcomers in a more formalized manner, and since then the growth of Cape Cocoa took off after more and more people started to join. Most residents of Cape Cocoa at the time were newfriends, with the notable exception being [[SirTwiggles]], who applied for Cocoian citizenship despite being a citizen of [[Imperial Truidence]] and potentially [[Icenia]].
=== The Rise of Capeland ===
==== The Charter of New Midway and the Renaming of the Maritime State ====
On May 5th, 2021, AK announced the [https://www.reddit.com/r/civclassics/comments/n5ptnb/new_cape_cocoa_claims/ claiming of territory] that included land south of the wooded cliffs of Cape Cocoa, the rest of Elonorth island territory, and the Southern area of what was formerly [[Carpathia]]. Due to the fact that the land no longer covered the Cape, the name "Cape Cocoa" was dropped, and [https://www.reddit.com/r/civclassics/comments/n5te7b/renaming_of_cape_cocoa_to_capeland/ in its stead] came Capeland.
The eastern territory was to be named "New Midway," in reference to a major island municipality owned by [https://scratchciv.fandom.com/wiki/Chungia Chungia] on [https://scratch.mit.edu/studios/25297931/ ScratchCiv] known as "[https://scratchciv.fandom.com/wiki/Chungia#Midway Midway]." The territory was chosen due to the fact that the spruce woods resembled the terrain in Chungia - specifically Wabbittown (ScratchCiv).
The colonial officer put in charge to oversee infrastructural operations on New Midway was Orhint. He was an avid player of ScratchCiv and built the original Midway there. Accompanied with him was Magnileve, the leader of Chungia in ScratchCiv. As news of the colony spread, an influx of newfriend citizens (brought over by DapperBug25) joined and headed to New Midway to help build the new city of Wabbittown (Non-ScratchCiv).

== Geography ==
===
Cape Cocoa is located in a wooded cliff in the shallow Southeast of the map (+, +). It encompasses territory formerly owned by [[Communist Cities Caretaker-Protectorate|Lenin Isle]], as well as a mesa island north of the mainland and the desert south. The infrastructure of Cape Cocoa does extend beyond solid ground; as some buildings are also built on the side of the cliff as well as on the shallow shores.
==== Precincts ====
The territory owned by Cape Cocoa is split into precincts, which entail different voting/building sectors of the state.
As of May 1st 2021, there are four precincts within Cape Cocoa's borders.
* '''The Proper''', or Cape Cocoa Proper, is the main part of Cape Cocoa and is the most densely populated precinct. It is named due to it being the centralized area, as well as being the site of its first buildings.
The building style here is more town-like, and consists of many wooden structures built out of oak, dark oak, and stone brick.
* '''Southmarket''', aptly named, covers the region south of The Proper, and is planned to be a more urbanized area of Cape Cocoa. A large arch bridge extends out to the east of Southmarket, splitting itself in half to allow passage into the precinct before further extending into eastern Crownest.
* '''Crownest''' is the largest precinct of Cape Cocoa, and is currently undeveloped territory. Plans of establishing parks and conservation areas are being made in an effort to preserve the roofed woods that grew naturally here. The first sightings of Crowzen the Stone Man were made here, though most of his sightings are in The Proper or Southmarket.
* '''Elonorth''', named after Eloc and Northstar, is a mesa that is located on an island north of mainland Cape Cocoa. It was chartered by Northstar with the prospects of setting up a mob farm; in particular a blaze and skeleton farm due to spawners being found in the region. Elonorth is also Cape Cocoa's main source of terracotta.
==== Layers ====
The territory owned by Cape Cocoa is additionally split into three layers. This unique sectorization policy is a result of the terrain of Cape Cocoa, and the objective of maximizing the efficiency of the land.
* The '''Upstairs''' layer encompasses the top overground layer on cliffside land. Most tourist attractions are usually located Upstairs.
* The '''Underground''' layer takes up the space between the Upstairs and Downstairs layers. Due to its size, the Underground is split into two sublayers:
** The '''Trenches''' are the upper-tier, and consist mainly of lower-classmen residences and industrial areas.
** The '''Strongholds''' are the lower-tier, and are planned to have Downstairs residences and transportation tunnels.
* The '''
New Midway is located on a spruce forest further east from Cape Cocoa. It covers territory formerly owned by [[Carpathia]], as well as a desert island west of the mainland that [https://www.reddit.com/r/civclassics/comments/lupems/the_most_blessed_and_gracious_emirate_of_medina/ may be coveted] by a semi/inactive player.
