[Ans] What was Colorado's first capital city?

Step 1 : Introduction to the question "What was Colorado's first capital city?"

Colorado City was founded on May 22, 1859, when the Colorado City Town Company, a group mainly from Denver and Auraria, laid claim to two square miles of land. They envisioned that Colorado City would be a major supply hub via Ute Pass for the new gold mines in South Park and the Blue River, where major strikes in the Pike's Peak Gold Rush had recently been made. In 1859, the name Colorado City was selected by the city's founders, the Colorado City Town Company, because of the red sandstone rocks and red outcroppings in the vicinity (specifically, the Rampart Range and Garden of the Gods formations). The word Colorado in Spanish currently means "to blush" or "to go red". In 1859, Colorado City was in the most westerly part of Kansas Territory. The town prospered in late 1859 and early 1860.

Golden:

In 1891, major gold strikes were made in Cripple Creek and Victor, on the other side of Pikes Peak from Colorado City, and suddenly supplies were needed for this last major phase of the Colorado Gold Rush and the town's big boom was on. Eventually Colorado City was processing much of the gold ore at the Golden Cycle Mill using Palmer's railroads. Colorado City was the location of a 1903 strike that spread to Cripple Creek and eventually led to the Colorado Labor Wars.
