The National Capital City of Olympia Act, passed in January 2024, significantly expanded the city's boundaries and authority. This reorganization incorporated the formerly separate city of [[Neah bay|Neah Bay]] and established several parishes under Olympia's jurisdiction, creating a larger metropolitan area under centralized governance. The city now consists of six parishes, which are represented in-game as separate towns but fall under the unified governance of the City.

The city's executive powers are carried out by the City Executive, elected monthly by residents. As of February 2025, HawaiianDPG serves as the city executive, having been elected to a third term. City ordinances are made by the Metropolitan Assembly (sometimes informally referred to as the City Council), consisting of members elected by proportional representation. SayerQT serves as the ceremonial ''Lord Mayor of Olympia''.

Olympia was founded on May 21, 2022, by former [[Seattle (Aurora)|Seattle]] Mayor [[SayerQT]], following Seattle's decline in activity. The city rapidly expanded after becoming the capital of the newly formed nation of Cascadia in July 2022. Throughout its history, Olympia has undergone significant development, including the construction of its downtown area, the Presidential Palace, National Tower, and Union Station. Since late 2024, it has been the subject of political dispute, with mass demolition, reconstruction, and renovations to Downtown and the planned ''Project Olympia'' facing delays, polarization, and gridlock. In late January 2025, Project Olympia finally began construction by the Greater Olympia Construction Taskforce, after much of historical Downtown was demolished by the [[Cabinet of Cascadia#Secretary of the Interior|Department of the Interior]]'s Olympia Renovation Bureau in autumn 2024.
