Lynchburg, Virginia (*John Carpenter reference*)

Ignoring the reference, that would be awesome.

I voted New York out of habit, but quickly realized I'd prefer it somewhere in the heart of the Third World.  Kinshasa.

A new extremely green city built in Kakadu would be awesome for the world capital.

Or as I said before, Gabarone.

Personally I'd prefer the Tower Hamlets or Islington, but I'll go along with what you said.  Tongue

Hey, I like the City Tongue Even though it's official population is something like 200...

I'd say build a new city ala Brasillia, on an artificial floating island somewhere in the Indian ocean. Name it Terra City.

I knew you could be the other one to come with that.

Other ideas:

An island that already exists, building a new one would be too much work and money, one which would be an international territory, if it's impossible to get one from a nation, then ok, build one.

A big base in orbit of the Earth, some engineers say it would be possible to build some in which you could have a full life, a world government would be in a lot of time in the future, so it could match with the technique of the epoch...

Anyways...

Looking across human history, the city that comes closest to capital of the world is Baghdad.
