The city of Raleigh is the capital of North Carolina.
<u>Explanation:</u>
After the establishment of North Carolina as a state, Raleigh was declared its capital in 1792.
The administrators of the state believed that there is a need for an unalterable government seat and hence, came forward the idea of the settling of Raleigh, a city that would be in geographic proximity to the central part of the state.
Before Raleigh was officially declared as the capital, it had two nominal capitals named Bath and New Bern one after the other.
