توپيكا (Topeka ؛ //؛ بلغة كانسا: Tó Pee Kuh) هي عاصمة ولاية كانزس ومقر مقاطعة شوني. وتقع على نهر كانزس في الجزء الأوسط من مقاطعة شوني، في شمال شرق كانزس، في وسط الولايات المتحدة. As of the 2010 census, the city population was 127,473. The Topeka Metropolitan Statistical Area, which includes Shawnee, Jackson, Jefferson, Osage, and Wabaunsee counties, had a population of 233,870 in the 2010 census.
الاسم توپيكا Topeka هوجملة بلغة Kansa-Osage تعني "المكان حيث غرسنا البطاطس"، أو"مكان جيد لزراعة البطاطس". As a placename, Topeka was first recorded in 1826 as the Kansa name for what is now called the نهر كانزس. Topeka's founders chose the name in 1855 because it "was novel, of Indian origin and euphonious of sound." The mixed-blood Kansa Native American, Joseph James, called Jojim, is credited with suggesting the name of Topeka. The city, laid out in 1854, was one of the Free-State towns founded by Eastern antislavery men immediately after the passage of the Kansas–Nebraska Bill. In 1857, Topeka was chartered as a city.
The city is well known for the landmark U.S. Supreme Court case Brown v. Board of Education of Topeka, which overturned Plessy vs. Ferguson and declared racial segregation in public schools to be unconstitutional. Three ships of the U.S. Navy have been named after the city.
