Harrogate (Caroline Era)

Harrogate is the administrative capital of England, situated in southern Yorkshire in Northumbria. It was moved from London in 1993 when England was federalised. Harrogate has a capped population of 280000, having grown as a result of careful planning over a period of about a decade. It has its own administrative county, the English Capital District, which is situated on the edge of North Yorkshire. It has a direct railway line to London and the M1 was extended to it from Leeds, though since wheeled road vehicles are rarely used this really takes the form of a fairly loosely maintained clear stretch of fenced-off ground with a central reservation rather than a tarmacked road.
