The modern capital of Kazakhstan has undergone several name changes. Akmola city was renamed Astana ("Astana" - capital city) and announced as the new capital of Kazakhstan in 1997 under the program of city development due to fast-developing, favorable economic conditions.
Later, the city was renamed in 2019 after the first President of Kazakhstan, Nursultan Nazarbayev, who made an incredible contribution to the country's flourishing and world recognition, and his personal involvement in developing the new capital. Shortly after the administrative reforms in 1999, UNESCO titled Astana the City of Peace.
Due to quite harsh and windy weather, Astana is usually called the northern capital.
