Well, also, I don't know how the process would work to relocate.

here's how it works. first of all you want to colonize (ASAP) to near whoever you want to colonize, in this case it is UEL.
to expand you must research something called "expansion" (wow lol =P). Expansion is in the
Seafaring tree and it is the third one down. Once you have researched expansion you have to build a
Palace . A palace allows you to expand basically.
Costs of a level 1 Palace:
600 lumber ---8 hours to build.
Costs for Expanding:
12000 Gold
1.25k Lumber
5 Trade Ships
40 Citizens
Once you colonize near UEL your capital city is basically useless because its too far away. Thats why, like Hidus said, focus everything on expansion, dont gather too many resources because you're just gonna drop your first town pretty much as soon as you colonize. So play with the mentality that you are going to abandon the town you are playing in right now, don't build it up too much.
Yes it does require some sacrifice on your part but I'm sure luckyshot or any other part of UEL would be happy to help you out with your new town =D. Thats what I've been doing with my alliance, and we're all happilly placed exactly on 21:61 =D.
