Washington D.C. is the capital of the largest, greatest and the most powerful country on Earth. It's definately the first or second most important city in the world.

Canberra.

Nothing says "screw politics" like making your capital, Canberra. And while we are at it we can make Julia Guillard Prime Minister of the World! Think of the possibilities...or repercussions, Whatever floats your boat.

Generally, I'd say an oceanic port city. New York and Hong Kong for example.

Goa is a shithole. As much as we Indians try to make it out to be some sort of Indian paradise with Portuguese culture, it smells bad, the people there suck, and it's generally all sorts of levels of do not want to go.

Sounds like Gary, Indiana...only with Portugeuse culture!

Washington is really a sort of "screw the politicians" sort of city, too. It's built on a motherfucking swamp, and it reminds the denizens of that fact all summer long.

Rome, obv.

New Roman Empire anyone?

Male', Maldives.

Alliteration for the win.

No alcohol though.

It could not be in the US or England. let's just say a lot people didn't and don't like them. You could say other wise but the cold war or 9 /11 would prove it . Plus it has to make every body happy not just the English speakers.

i got a better idea.

We Build a Bigger International Space Station and stick the World Leaders there.

by **Angleter** » Wed Sep 07, 2011 8:28 am

If it gets transferred out of its home country and into an international authority, then please take Hull. John Prescott can be its mayor.

Seriously, we'd probably be best off with a city with it's own unique identity and melting-pot culture, separate from (the rest of) any nation. How about Singapore or Cape Town?

NYC probably has the best claim, but it probably wouldn't be a good idea to place the world capital in a preexisting nation. Pretty much the only place on Earth that isn't part of a preexisting nation is Antarctica, and that's a frozen wasteland where any large-scale permanent settlement is practically impossible. And if you could manage to set one up it'd be producing a lot of heat, which means that part of Antarctica would no longer be a frozen wasteland, which would be a completely terrible idea. The best bet would then be either in orbit or on the Moon, and we're a long way from being able to make a large-scale permanent settlement in either locale.

Isn't Male' on an atoll that is supposed to submerge in about 20 years? I suspect the world leaders would be a bit more serious about global warming if they had to live there.

But it's not the economic centre of the country.

Kabul or Mogadishu. Nothing shows the power and valour of a world government like placing making one of the worst cities on Earth into a vibrant and cosmopolitan wonderland.

Bayern Munchen... Good point.

But I still like Real Madrid more.

In terms of finance, London would be second then, I think.

Second in importance, not size. Tokyo, and NYC are bigger.

Sorry, not a Real fan. Barcelona is my La Liga team.

Ay.

The North Pole would make a most excellent home for a far-right world government prepared to subsidize the toy industries of the globe.
