Caprica City is an ocean-front city of tall towers and glittering spires, bisected by a river, which leads down to the sea from the lakes in the hills behind the city. Prior to the Cylon attack, Caprica City was home to some 7 million people. It was the largest city on the colony of Caprica, and home to the executive, legislative and judicial branches of the Colonial Government. The Colonial Defense Mainframe resided in Caprica City.
A large spaceport linked the city with the rest of the Twelve Colonies, while the hills behind the city provided secluded living space for the well-off among the population, such as Doctor Gaius Baltar. It was surrounded by a number of smaller hamlets, such as Oasis (Miniseries).
Caprica City was completely destroyed by a Cylon nuclear detonation (in the 50 megaton range) in the Cylon attack.
