You don't get notified.  If the FK has a secret hidden MT or
City somewheres and the gold to pay for relocation, he'll
have a capital relocation and proceed to sneakily plan his
resurgence.

There are ways to confirm that a nation has been eliminated.
You may notice that all of their pop centers are downgrading
each turn.  You can also be told that the nation is dead by
means of the rumor mill - i.e. a report in nation messages.
You can try to facilitate this by issuing the order Uncover
Secrets while the character issuing the order is sitting
on a pop center of the nation in question.

The player is wiped out at the end of the Turn, when the
check for capital status takes place.
