The former capital of America was Philadelphia, wasn't it? When did you move to Washington again?
1790, Washington, DC, USA! ! !

After the founding of the People's Republic of China, there must always be a capital. The construction of the American capital took a lot of effort. Philadelphia and new york are both vying for the capital. They are small and will always be one of the best "metropolises" in America. They also have their own reasons: Philadelphia is the birthplace of 1776 Declaration of Independence and 1787 American Constitution, and new york is the seat of the American government after the founding of the People's Republic of China. Just as we were indecisive, the first government had a political crisis. 1790, Washington Finance Minister Hamilton wanted to reform, but was opposed by a group of politicians in Virginia. He made a seemingly inappropriate deal: these politicians no longer opposed his financial reform, but the capital of the United States was to be in Virginia at that time. This is the story of the American capital.

Although President Washington is a Virginian, he has a neutral attitude towards the capital in his usual style. Although the capital was finally located near his hometown, President Washington was the only president who had never worked in the new capital, although everyone named the capital after him later.
