The capital of Indiana moved from Corydon to Indianapolis in 1820 primarily due to Indianapolis's more central location, which made it more accessible to residents across the growing state. Additionally, the decision was influenced by the desire for a more strategic and defensible site, as Corydon was located in the southern part of the state, making it vulnerable to attacks. The move also aimed to stimulate development and population growth in the central region of Indiana.
