It is also {{convert|259|km|abbr=off}} north of Iringa through Mtera. It covers an area of {{convert|2669|km2|sqmi|0}} of which {{convert|625|km2|sqmi|0}} is urbanized. DemographicsOut of the total population, 199,487 people (48.5 percent) are male while 211,469 people (51.5 percent) are female. The average household size is 4.4 people.[1] The Roman Catholic Church reports that 19.2% of the population are Roman Catholics.[3] Dodoma is populated by different ethnic groups because it is a government administrative centre, although the indigenous ethnic groups are the Gogo, Rangi, and Sandawe. There are also small Indian minorities.{{Citation needed|date=February 2010}} HistoryOriginally a small market town known as Idodomya, the modern Dodoma was founded in 1907 by German colonists during construction of the Tanzanian central railway. The layout followed the typical colonial planning of the time with a European quarter segregated from a native village.[4] In 1967, following independence, the government invited Canadian firm Project Planning Associates Ltd to draw up a master plan to help control and organise the then capital of the country Dar es Salaam that was undergoing rapid urbanisation and population growth. The plan was cancelled in 1972 in part due to its failure to adequately address the historical and social problems associated with the city.[4] On 1 October 1973, after a nationwide party referendum, the Tanzanian government announced that the capital would be moved from Dar es Salaam to a more central location to create significant social and economic improvements for the central region and to centralise the capital within the country. The cost was estimated at £186 million and envisaged to take 10 years. The site, the Dodoma region, had been looked at as a potential new capital as early as 1915 by the then colonial power Germany, in 1932 by the British as a League of Nations mandate and again in the post-independence National Assembly in 1961 and 1966.[5][6] With an already established town at a major crossroads, the Dodoma region had an agreeable climate, room for development[7] and was located in the geographic centre of the nation. Its location in a rural environment was seen as the ujamaa heartland and therefore appropriate for a ujamaa capital that could see and learn from neighbouring villages and maintain a close relationship to the land.[6][8] A new capital was seen as a more economically viable alternative than attempting to reorganise and restructure Dar es Salaam and was idealised as a way of diverting development away from continued concentration in a single coastal city that was seen as anathema to the government’s goal of socialist unity and development.[6] Objectives for the new capital included: that the city becoming a symbol of Tanzania’s social and cultural values and aspirations; that the capital city function being supplemented by industrial-commercial development; and that the mistakes and features of colonial planning and modern big cities such as excessive population densities, pollution and traffic congestion were to be avoided.[4] The Capital Development Authority (CDA) invited three international firms to submit proposals for the best location and preparation of a master plan: Project Planning Associates Ltd., of Canada; Doxiadis Associates International, of Greece (who had worked on Pakistan’s new capital of Islamabad); and Engineering Consulting Firms Association, of Japan. A fourth firm from Germany submitted a proposal without invitation.[6] The winner, decided by the CDA together with independent American consultants, was Project Planning Associates, the same Canadian consultants whose plan for Dar es Salaam was seen as inadequate and not responsive enough to the local conditions and needs for Tanzania’s largest city.[6] Their plan envisaged a city of 400,000 persons by 2000 and 1.3 million by 2020.[8] Dodoma was envisaged as the first non-monumental capital city[8] as opposed to the monumentality and hierarchy of other master planned capital cities such as Abuja, Brasilia and Washington. It rejected geometrical forms such as grid iron and radial plans as inappropriate as the urban form was intended to undulate and curve with the existing topography and not in conflict with it so as to retain its rural ujamaa feel. As befitted Tanzania’s development at the time, the car was seen as secondary in importance to public transports such as buses which were then utilised by much of the population.[8] In 1974, Dodoma had a population of 40,000 and was chosen as the actual site of the new capital as opposed to nearby Hombolo or Ihumwa. The existing population size was not seen as an impediment while existing infrastructure would reduce construction costs.[6] The city, designed over {{convert|2,500|acres|abbr=off}}, was meant to be "the chief village in a nation of villages," built at a human scale meant to be experienced on foot.[9] Its basic principles follow the garden city model of a town set amongst a garden with green belts separating segregated zones for residents and industry. As part of the move of the government, a capitol complex was envisaged and multiple designs by different international teams offered competing visions and versions of the siting and layout of a capitol complex. These competing proposals, some paid for by foreign governments as a form of aid and others by the firms involved were presented as early as 1978. However, it was not until 2006 that the Chinese government delivered a finished parliament building in Dodoma. The final location of the parliament was not in its original intended location in the master plan, with the location now being developed as a site for a university.[5] As much of the initial design never came to fruition over the past 40 years, government offices and embassies have resisted moving offices to Dodoma. As a result, many government offices remain in Dar es Salaam, which remains the commercial and the de-facto capital of Tanzania.[10][5] Dodoma was envisaged as a nation building project to cement a newly post-colonial independence identity and direction in Tanzania and is similar to projects in Nigeria (Abuja), Botswana (Gaborone), Malawi (Lilongwe) and Mauritania (Nouakchott).[5] InfrastructureIrrigation DamDodoma municipal authority is also responsible for the upkeep of the nearby Hombolo Dam. ClimateDodoma features a semi-arid climate{{citation needed|date=September 2018}} with relatively warm temperatures throughout the year. While average highs are somewhat consistent throughout the year, average lows dip to {{convert|13|°C|°F|1}} in July. Dodoma averages 570 mm of precipitation per year, the bulk of which occurs during its wet season between November and April. The remainder of the year comprises the city’s dry season. {{Weather box|location = Dodoma (1971–2000) |metric first = yes |single line = yes |Jan record high C = 35.3 |Feb record high C = 36.0 |Mar record high C = 33.5 |Apr record high C = 32.7 |May record high C = 32.9 |Jun record high C = 31.7 |Jul record high C = 31.1 |Aug record high C = 34.1 |Sep record high C = 33.8 |Oct record high C = 36.1 |Nov record high C = 36.0 |Dec record high C = 36.4 |year record high C = 36.4 |Jan high C = 29.4 |Feb high C = 29.4 |Mar high C = 29.0 |Apr high C = 28.7 |May high C = 28.0 |Jun high C = 27.1 |Jul high C = 26.5 |Aug high C = 27.3 |Sep high C = 29.0 |Oct high C = 30.5 |Nov high C = 30.1 |Dec high C = 30.4 |year high C = 28.8 |Jan low C = 18.6 |Feb low C = 18.6 |Mar low C = 18.3 |Apr low C = 17.9 |May low C = 16.5 |Jun low C = 14.4 |Jul low C = 13.6 |Aug low C = 14.2 |Sep low C = 15.3 |Oct low C = 16.9 |Nov low C = 18.3 |Dec low C = 18.8 |year low C = 16.5 |Jan record low C = 15.7 |Feb record low C = 16.2 |Mar record low C = 14.9 |Apr record low C = 14.9 |May record low C = 10.3 |Jun record low C = 8.9 |Jul record low C = 7.6 |Aug record low C = 9.3 |Sep record low C = 11.1 |Oct record low C = 13.0 |Nov record low C = 14.4 |Dec record low C = 14.4 |year record low C = 7.6 |rain colour = green |Jan rain mm = 133.7 |Feb rain mm = 144.5 |Mar rain mm = 113.9 |Apr rain mm = 57.8 |May rain mm = 5.3 |Jun rain mm = 0.1 |Jul rain mm = 0.03 |Aug rain mm = 0.01 |Sep rain mm = 0.01 |Oct rain mm = 2.08 |Nov rain mm = 26.25 |Dec rain mm = 123.28 |year rain mm = 606.96 |unit rain days = 1.0 mm |Jan rain days = 10 |Feb rain days = 9 |Mar rain days = 7 |Apr rain days = 5 |May rain days = 1 |Jun rain days = 0 |Jul rain days = 0 |Aug rain days = 0 |Sep rain days = 0 |Oct rain days = 0 |Nov rain days = 2 |Dec rain days = 7 |year rain days = 41 |Jan humidity = 66 |Feb humidity = 68 |Mar humidity = 70 |Apr humidity = 68 |May humidity = 63 |Jun humidity = 60 |Jul humidity = 59 |Aug humidity = 58 |Sep humidity = 55 |Oct humidity = 53 |Nov humidity = 55 |Dec humidity = 63 |year humidity = 62 |source 1 = World Meteorological Organization[11] |source 2 = Deutscher Wetterdienst (extremes and humidity)[12] |date=August 2010 }} EducationUniversitiesThere are several universities in Dodoma, two of which include the St Johns University of Tanzania, owned by the Anglican Church of Tanzania, and University of Dodoma, with about 35,000 students. Both universities officially opened in 2007. In addition there is Mipango University and CBE. The Anglican Church owns the only international school in Dodoma, Canon Andrea Mwaka School ("CAMS"). CAMS, established in 1950, provides education to children from Nursery to Form 4. The education is based on the English National curriculum and the school offers students the opportunity to take IGCSE examinations. An estimated 280 students are taught at the school. TransportAirportThe city's airport, Dodoma Airport is managed by the Tanzania Civil Aviation Authority; the size of planes are limited to small aircraft at the moment. There are plans to build a new airport outside the city with increased runway length and weight-bearing capacity. The city can be reached by flights operated by Air Tanzania, Auric Air, and Flightlink[13] at Dodoma Airport south of Dodoma. RailwayThe city is also served by the Dodoma train station located near Kikuyu Avenue which has the Central Railway Line. The Central Railway Line connects it over a distance of {{convert|465|km|mi}} with Dar es Salaam in the east.
