It is the country's oldest city, traditionally dated to c. 900 AD, and its second-largest after Nairobi, with a population of 1,208,333 at the 2019 census. Mombasa serves as the capital of Mombasa County and was the original capital of the British East Africa Protectorate, a role Nairobi assumed in 1907. Buildings in the central business district are painted blue and white, in a nod to the ocean.
