Now i know historicly Marrakesh is their capital but in game reason i see little reason why i would stay. I can't even get the privy ring(wasir) title because Marrakesh is so woefully undeveloped.

I will probably move to Cordoba to be closer to infidel or Fez. I will probably still do it even if there are event that state that Almoravid become decadent by moving to a more prosperous city or the Berber alienated because i'm integrating the Andalus closer because Marrakesh is just bad.

Haha yeah. And Almoravid historical capital is in Marrakech. I would have try to build it from ground up but since it lack infrastructure for High minster official title by lacking infrastructure in Marrakesh and no nearby castle for High Marshall and Master of Horse.

Cordoba not only have sufficient infrastructure it also have Granada Fortress nearby and even close to frontier. Cordoba give it all, High Minster title and opportunity for Faction Leader to defend against Iberian incursion.

Hmm. Or maybe i should pick Seville? Unlike Cordoba it has a ports and can give maritime intereset.

I would reckon the capital's condition is part of the challenge to being an alternate history ruler. Of course that very nature means you can move the capital to whatever you wish if you desire. Try both ideas and see what serves you well. Cordoba would seem to be more plausible for someone going truly all in on their conquest of the peninsula though. But again, your kingdom.

Thanks.

From what i heard from Marinid sultanate where the capital is Fez it seems Marrakech become a hotbed of rebellion after losing the capital title after 2 dynasty serving as it's capital. Well if Almoravid choose a more prosperous capital it's likely Marrakech will be neglected and resentful.
