Why does Ethiopia keep changing its capital? Really, I get notification about this at least every 2-3 years. o_O o_O o_O
And the AI just chooses location at random...

Edit: I noticed this from at least 1-2 patches. And this disease seems to be affecting Ethiopia only.

Wikipedia said:
Until the 16th century, the Solomonic Emperors of Ethiopia usually had no fixed capital town, but instead lived in tents in temporary royal camps as they moved around their realms while their family, bodyguard and retinue devoured surplus crops and cut down nearby trees for firewood.

Ethiopia got a special mechanic for it's capital in the Origin DLC.

It cause devastation autonomy to raise and it must move around to avoid destroying their own nation.

You can just turn off the notification.

At least they've gotten better at keeping it in Ethiopia proper. Even if they still have a bizarre fascination with specifically the lands of Kanem Bornu if they conquer them.

Ethiopia's capital really was the peak of Wikipedia reading as game development
Really should've been a semi universal mechanic for non Western tags with Ethiopia just getting some extra bonuses from doing it
Mali also gets a unique tier 1 gov reform because oh they have female line inheritance

Not sure why "non-Western tags"... several Western nations had moving courts. In France, Paris long held the role of most important city, but court was in one castle on the Loire river or another... often moving around the kingdom. Louis XIV put an end to it in the second half of the XVII century when he settled in Versailles.
