The main building was burned by the British in 1814 during the War of 1812. Afterward, when the building was being restored, the smoke-stained gray stone walls were painted white. The name “White House<span>,” however, was not used officially until President Theodore Roosevelt had it engraved on his stationery in 1901</span>

The Greeks, like many other ancient civilizations felt deeply connected to the land they lived on.
