As far as the capital leaving, again, it's the Duchy leaving, not the specific land. I believe the Duchy would take any lands under it, though, so I wonder if the capital conflicted with that rule and now resides under a different Duchy, still within Sint?
That would have made more sense, but it is not what happened. Fianik has moved with the entire duchy (entire duchy switching makes sense, the lord of Fianik is also the duke of the duchy), but Fianik remains a capital of Sint listed with realm information.

It's even possible for a Duchy to exist without regions, but at that point it becomes just a title.
I believe I saw an example of that, but can then someone explain to me what is the purpose of allowing this? I am fairly certain you cannot form a duchy unless you do that around a city, so why would only creation but not existence of a duchy be tied to a city? Why wouldn't an empty duchy (or even one without a city) automatically dissolve?
